php - How to setup relationships in contact Database -


i embarking on new venture learn php , mysql. have done simple databases in past using access, 1 web-centric database tracking myriad of data including contacts , project information. need link various tables in various relationships, , not sure best way that. since starting out php/mysql researching online sources learning as possible. if has recommendations on books or websites, appreciate it.

in setting tables, 1 major area concerned contacts. have variety of contacts include: employees, clients, vendors, subcontractors, etc.. , single contact can multiple types , each type have various additional fields pertain them. thought have 1 contacts table links other tables various contact types. i'm not sure field type or setup of table options best... thoughts?

this scenario play out in other areas of database projects , products.

any pointers/direction appreciated.

wes

are familiar object oriented design.

in rdbms, such mysql, design database follows:

  • contacts (first name, last names, etc)
    • employees
    • vendors
    • clients
    • etc

your tables extend contacts hold specific data contact_id column, creates relationship.

as aside, nosql solutions solve problem natively don't have rigid schema. meaning save various data each record.
