|
Beta Site (04/05/2005) |
First public beta started today. I'm hoping to get a lot of good feedback from this. I'll keep plodding along on the "under construction" pages. |
|
Site Updates (03/12/2005) |
More books have been added to the Library. Also, the Mailing List Signup Page has been enhanced, making it easier for me to support additional mailing lists. |
|
DAMA Symposium (12/20/2004) |
I hope everyone who frequents DataModel.Org is a member of DAMA. If you aren't, please visit the site and join! Also please plan on attending the 2005 Symposium coming up in May. It is always a fantastic experience. I've been to quite a few myself, and this year I'm presenting my talk about Modeling Layers. |
|
Site Updates (10/03/2004) |
Just to give it a try, added PAYPAL link on main page. People can still send in checks with their membership forms, but for some this might be easier. Remember, this is just helping me keep the hosting fees paid and the site on-line. |
|
DAMA Conference (05/11/2004) |
I just got back from the annual DAMA conference, held this year in beautiful Los Angeles, California (not that I actually stepped out of the hotel). I am working on a write-up about my experiences, which I'll try to post on here as soon as it is done. |
|
Site Updates (05/02/2004) |
I've added a couple of new items to the Data Modeling Reference section. There are draft white papers about surrogate keys and look-up tables. Also, there is a really new page with job description information. I find it very hard to find authoritative information about Data Management job descriptions. Anyone wanting to help out, please let me know. |
|
Design Tools (05/02/2004) |
I've been adding more modeling tools to the Design Tool Section. One interesting entry, "Sanity", runs in the Java Virtual Machine, so it is platform independent. Support your vendor of choice! |
|
Site Updates (05/02/2004) |
More books have been added to the Library. Also, the Mailing List Signup Page has been enhanced, making it easier for me to support additional mailing lists.. |
|
Hosting Change (04/06/2004) |

|
Employed (05/20/2003) |
Great news, everyone! A wonderful company found me, and now I have a great job working for John Deere Credit, located in Johnston, Iowa. Happiness!! Thank you to all of you who consoled me and presented opportunities. You are all good friends. |
|
Guestbook Problems (03/28/2003) |
Well, I had to make the guestbook read/only. Someone (or many someones) have automated software that adds junk to the guestbook faster than I can remove it. So, no more guestbook. |
|
Resume (03/22/2003) |
I hate to use the web site this way, but I need to do something. If you are a recruiter, or just know of a job opening: |
|
Job Hunting (03/21/2003) |
Well, I have bad news. I lost my job at Tyson Foods earlier this year, and as yet have not found replacement income. That means DataModel.Org is on borrowed time. If I cannot find a job soon, I will have to start cutting back on luxuries, such as this web site. Please, if you know of someone looking for a top-notch data modeler, DA or DBA, contact me immediately. We are willing to move, if needed, but would prefer the Midwest. |
|
Post Section (03/28/2002) |
Check out the Member Announcement section for a new posting about James Bean´s new "Global Web Architecture Group". |
|
New Daughter (03/28/2002) |
OK, this isn't exactly data model related, but it does give one darned good reason I have been a bit slow on the web site and email lists. My wife gave birth Monday (3/25/2002) to a tiny little girl, Emily Rose Nicewarner. Check out the link: Mercy Babies Online |
|
Member Database (10/10/2001) |
As stated in the PowerDynamo Update below, the entire DataModel.Org web site is being redesigned. If you want to see the current design, check out the Model Section and please be free with your feedback. |
|
Dictionary Added (10/09/2001) |
A few of you requested a dictionary of data modeling terms. I happen to have a glossary from a project I worked on a while back, so have included it as a starting point. Please visit the Data Model Dictionary page and check it out. If something is missing or wrong, let me know! |
|
New Mailing List (09/08/2001) |
To split the mailing list traffic a bit, we will now have a mailing list dedicated to job-related issues. Click on the "Join Mailing List" link to find out more. |

PowerDesigner DEF/XDB Library (10/17/2000) |
There are a lot of opportunities with the PowerDesigner definition files to customize the support for individual DBMS, or to even create support for a new DBMS. Now you can put your favorite definition files right here. For now, if you want to add a file to the list, just email me about it and FTP your file directly to ftp://ftp.datamodel.org/incoming. I´ll post the file on the web page ASAP. |
|
SETI@home (06/21/2000) |
Just for fun (and to keep my computer busy while I"m at work) I started doing work for the SETI project. Furthermore, I started a group DataModel.Org. If you are interested, please join your computer to the network and join the DataModel.Org team. |
|

|
Editor's Choice Award (05/10/1999) |
 Great going everyone! We won the Editor's Choice Award from DataWarehouse.Com. Thanks for your continued support and feedback. Believe me, your faith is appreciated. |
|
PowerDynamo Update (02/21/1999) |
We have found a host for the new version of DataModel.Org (the 100% database driven idea). The idea will be to make the entire site run under PowerDynamo, so the membership database had to be changed slightly. With that change, some basic limitations of the original design are gone; specifically it won't just be databases and design tools. The new site will have Data Warehouse, Object Modeling, OLAP and Development tools. If you have suggestions, please send a message to the webmaster ASAP. Thanks. |
|
mSQL Help Needed! (06/24/1998) |
I am looking at using mSQL as the database behind DataModel.Org. Does anyone have experience with this database platform? I could really use some help. |
|
Library Coming Soon (06/17/1998) |
I'm setting up a library of recommended reading on Data Modeling topics. For now, here is a link to Amazon.com  |
|
On-line Database Status (06/01/1998) |
Well, I'm at an impasse with Miva, the HTML database I intend to use as the foundation for most of the dynamic content on this site. There are instabilities in the language (which is fairly immature) that cause certain functions to fail unexpectedly, intermittently and completely out of my control. I'm working with HTMLScript support to resolve these issues. I still need feedback from you on the database structure itself. This is your database too! Check out the CDM and PDM reports and let me know what you think. |
|
Membership List (06/01/1998) |
I would like to officially recognize and thank the individuals and companies who have offered their generous financial support:
