Certainly! To design an optimized data model for RESTful API integration at XYZ Tech Solutions, we need to consider the unique business logic, data flow requirements, and the specific User Authentication functionality. Below is a suggested data model structure:
### Entities:
1. **User:**
- Attributes:
- UserID (Primary Key)
- Username
- Email
- Password (encrypted)
- First Name
- Last Name
- Other relevant user details
2. **Product:**
- Attributes:
- ProductID (Primary Key)
- Product Name
- Description
- Price
- Other relevant product details
3. **Order:**
- Attributes:
- OrderID (Primary Key)
- UserID (Foreign Key referencing User)
- Order Date
- Total Amount
- Other relevant order details
4. **OrderItem:**
- Attributes:
- OrderItemID (Primary Key)
- OrderID (Foreign Key referencing Order)
- ProductID (Foreign Key referencing Product)
- Quantity
- Subtotal
- Other relevant order item details
### Relationships:
- **User-Order Relationship:**
- A user can have multiple orders, but each order belongs to one user. This is a one-to-many relationship.
- **Order-OrderItem Relationship:**
- An order can have multiple order items, and each order item belongs to one order. This is a one-to-many relationship.
- **OrderItem-Product Relationship:**
- An order item is associated with one product, and a product can be part of multiple order items. This is a many-to-one relationship.
### Data Types:
- **User Table:**
- UserID: Integer (Auto-incremented)
- Username: String
- Email: String
- Password: String (Encrypted)
- First Name: String
- Last Name: String
- Other relevant user details: Appropriate data types (String, Integer, etc.)
- **Product Table:**
- ProductID: Integer (Auto-incremented)
- Product Name: String
- Description: Text
- Price: Decimal
- Other relevant product details: Appropriate data types
- **Order Table:**
- OrderID: Integer (Auto-incremented)
- UserID: Integer (Foreign Key)
- Order Date: DateTime
- Total Amount: Decimal
- Other relevant order details: Appropriate data types
- **OrderItem Table:**
- OrderItemID: Integer (Auto-incremented)
- OrderID: Integer (Foreign Key)
- ProductID: Integer (Foreign Key)
- Quantity: Integer
- Subtotal: Decimal
- Other relevant order item details: Appropriate data types
### User Authentication:
- Use a secure hashing algorithm to store passwords.
- Implement token-based authentication for secure API access.
- Include endpoints for user registration, login, and logout.
This data model is designed to efficiently represent the relationships between users, orders, products, and order items while accommodating XYZ Tech Solutions' business logic and data flow requirements. It supports the unique aspects of their operations and facilitates seamless integration through RESTful APIs.
