		<description><![CDATA[In my last article on Software Design Principles I talked about a methodology to use when designing a software project.  For this article I want to go a bit lower level, less &#8220;big picture&#8221;, and restrict the subject matter to the realm of database design.  In my experience most of the applications I write start [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Reliability - When it comes to healthcare, the primary focus of any patient data is that the information is both available and accurate at all times. Some businesses can afford downtime, even for long periods, but when the data is patient related, the data involved could become critical or even vital. For this reason, in [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Security Even before the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) was signed in 1996 the confidentiality of patient data had a high priority. Patient records were private and policies covering patient data restricted access to them to specific groups of people. But with technological advances such as The Internet, and public wireless network hardware being pushed [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Versatility The Versatility of a database is dependent on several factors; Scalability, Interoperability and Usability. Client/Server databases, normally, can be scaled, that is, you can design your system to allow for extreme growth in the number of users, and the amount of data stored by the system.  Fifteen years ago Scalability was not a primary consideration of most databases.  [...]]]></description>
