You can use the UML to Logical Data Model transformation and the
logical data model transformation profile to generate a logical data model
(LDM) from a UML model.
The following steps describe a typical scenario:
- Use UML for conceptual modeling.
- Transform the UML model into a logical data model.
- Modify and finalize the logical data model that can then be transformed
into a physical data model.
Note: You should always analyze your UML to ensure that it is valid before
you transform it. If you transform an invalid model, unpredictable results
can occur.
