Analyze the Gap between Theory and Practice in Data Management:

W3Analyze the Gap between Theory and Practice in Data Management:

For this assignment, perform research in order to identify the existing theories for databases and data management. The topics concerning databases and data management are too numerous to list here. Most people just take database technology for granted. It just works. However, there are underlying theoretical frameworks for ‘Data Management’ and for database technology including its relational design.  Normalization, for example, has a theoretical and a practical component.  In theory, normalization is good and helps reduce errors.  In practice, however, too much normalization can result in poor performance. So, what common theories exist?  As organizations’ data needs have changed and continue to change over time, database technology continues to evolve as well.  This opens the door for more theories and more research, doesn’t it? Research existing theories for databases and data management.  What common theories exist?  Have the theories evolved over time?  Now, research how these technologies are used in practice.  You will likely have to include business journals and practical application of the concepts.  Choose at least one major theory for further gap analysis. Write an assessment outlining the following:1. Your explanation of the theory that was chosen.2. Your analysis of the gap between theory and practice (industry literature can help show the state of practice and help you determine the gaps compared with the scholarly literature)3. Outline the root cause of this gap. Include the effect of the gap. Whom or what does it impact? Is it a positive or negative impact?Do not select database normalization for your theory.Support your assessment with a minimum of three scholarly resources. In addition to these specified resources, other appropriate scholarly resources, including older articles, may be included.
