Databases are very complex; a typical database can store data in hundreds of tables and can contain hundreds of references between tables. The layout of the data into tables and references between them is referred to as a schema. Learning the details of these complex schemas requires significant time. This problem is exacerbated by data sources being shared across organizations, and users attempting to make their applications do something for which they were not originally designed. Consider the following two scenarios:

数据库非常复杂；一个典型的数据库可以将数据存储在数百个表中，并且可以包含表之间的数百个引用。将数据布局到表中以及它们之间的引用称为架构。学习这些复杂模式的细节需要大量时间。跨组织共享数据源，以及用户试图让他们的应用程序执行一些最初不是为其设计的事情，这加剧了这个问题。请考虑以下两种情况：
