Entity Relationships

Overview

Waltz allows ad hoc relationships between two entities to be represented in the entity_relationship table. In order to represent a relationship.

This table encapsulates two entity references and a relationship kind. A relationship kind can be directional, in which case it is matters which entity is on side A or B of the entity relationship table.

The available relationship kinds are as follows:

  • HAS
  • PARTICIPATES_IN
  • LOOSELY_RELATES_TO
  • RELATES_TO
  • SUPPORTS
  • DEPRECATES

Has, Participates In and Supports are directional relationships and so when representated in the Waltz Entity Relationship table would read:

Entity A - HAS - Entity B
Entity A - PARTICIPATES_IN - Entity B
Entity A - SUPPORTS - Entity B
