The NoSQL movement is really a "no relational database" movement, because it advocates a database design different than the relational mode. Facebook and Twitter use NoSQL databases.

To perform the following projects you will need a computer that has Microsoft Access installed. If you have no experience working with Access, read Appendix A before you proceed.
For this set of project questions, we will create a Microsoft Access database for the Wedgewood Pacific Corporation (WPC). Founded in 1957 in Seattle, Washington, WPC has grown into an internationally recognized organization. The company is located in two buildings. One building houses the Administration, Accounting, Finance, and Human Resources departments, and the second houses the Production, Marketing, and Information Systems departments. The company database contains data about company employees, departments, company projects, company assets (for example, computer equipment), and other aspects of company operations.
In the following project questions, we will start by creating the WPC.accdb database with the following two tables:
DEPARTMENT (DepartmentName, BudgetCode, OfficeNumber, Phone)
EMPLOYEE (EmployeeNumber, FirstName, LastName, Department, Phone, Email)
