- Multiple User Access
- Allow all constraint restrictions (child delete, insert, update;
parent delete, insert, update)
- A good layout manager and printing capabilities
- HTML publishing of the model
- Test Data Generation
- Table: physical info manipulation (maxextents, minextents, buffer
pool, etc.)
- Stable
- With versioning the ability to rollback changes to the database
