Challenge: Identify business requirements in a scenario
(upbeat music) - [Instructor] Now it's particularly important to understand business requirements when designing highly scalable relational databases. So in this challenge we're going to identify business requirements, and we're going to talk about this hypothetical application which monitors people's health, using Internet of Things technologies. Now we're going to be working with a variety of data types, different data volumes, and different use cases for the data. And so the goal here is to understand and collect and identify both technical and nontechnical requirements. Now, as often the case, business users don't necessarily present all the things you need to know, so you're going to need to dig in and ask some questions. So part of this challenge is also identifying additional questions that you would ask of business experts about this particular application.
