🚀 Designing a Database for Apple’s Supply Chain 📦

🛠️Recently, I took on an exciting project to design a database for Apple’s supply chain management system. It was a rewarding experience that deepened my understanding of how technology supports large-scale logistics. Here’s a quick rundown of what I built and learned along the way.

🛠️ Building the AppleSupplyChain Database

I started by creating core tables to store essential data—employees, products, suppliers, and orders. Each table connected key elements in Apple’s supply chain, ensuring smooth operations. For example, the Employee table tracks hire dates and personal details, while the Product table manages pricing and descriptions for Apple’s devices.

📊 Creating Business Rules

To optimize operations, I implemented custom business rules, like preventing stores in New Mexico from ordering AirPods Max from a specific supplier, Hitachi Limited. These rules ensure the system runs efficiently and prevents costly errors.

🤖 Automating with Stored Procedures

I automated tasks like inserting employee data or processing customer orders using stored procedures. These SPROCs ensure transactions are completed without errors, saving time and maintaining data integrity.

💡 Learning and Moving Forward

This project gave me hands-on experience with database design and taught me how supply chains work on a global scale. I’m excited to apply these skills to future projects and continue exploring how tech can drive efficiency in real-world operations.
