πŸ“¦ Modular Database Schemas β€” Best-Practice SQL for Real Systems

This repository contains production-level SQL schemas designed with best practices in mind: modularity, normalization (up to 5NF/6NF), reusability, and scalability.
You can freely use, adapt, learn from, or improve these schemas for your own systems.

βœ… Suitable for learning, prototyping, production, and architectural inspiration.


🧱 What’s Inside?

Each schema represents a domain-specific module with clean separation of concerns and reusable components. Examples:

  • users, permissions, version β€” core modules
  • courses, skills, tasks, quizzes β€” learning management system (LMS)
  • student_profile, learning_style, feature_store β€” adaptive learning & analytics
  • content_unit, unit_dependencies β€” microlearning (5NF)
  • student_activity_log, grades_audit β€” behavioral tracking & audit (6NF)
  • translation_dictionary, translation_synsets β€” multilingual & semantic modeling

All schemas follow strict normalization, sensible default values, proper constraints, and are written for MariaDB / MySQL 8+.


🌟 Why This Exists?

I’m building this as a long-term open resource for:

  • Developers designing real-world relational systems
  • Students learning clean database architecture
  • Engineers exploring modular and versioned schema design
  • Teams building GraphQL/REST APIs over relational storage

You can explore, fork, clone, or extend any schema in this repository.
Pull requests and feedback are welcome.


πŸ›  Technologies

  • SQL (MySQL / MariaDB)
  • UTF8MB4 with UCA collation
  • ColumnStore-compatible fact tables
  • Compatible with GraphQL-style queries

πŸ”„ Versioning & Modularity (planned)

Soon each schema group will have:

  • Package metadata (name, version, description)
  • Dependencies and compatibility notes
  • Migration versioning via DDL diffs

Think: SPM/NPM for SQL schema design.

Let’s build database architecture as code β€” clean, modular, and composable.
