===Goal===
I will be looking to redesign the VC Database in a way that is more intuitively built than the previous one. I will also update the database with current data.
===Initial Stages===
The first step of the project was to figure out what primary keys to use for each major table that I create. I looked at the primary keys used in the creation of the [[VC Database Rebuild]] and found primary keys that are decent. I have updated them and list them below:
#CompanyBaseCore- coname, statecode, datefirstinv
#IPOCore- issuer, issuedate, statecode
#MACore- target name, target state code, announceddate
#Geo - city, statecode, coname, datefirst, year
#DeadDate - conname, statecode, datefirst, rounddate (tentative could still change)
#RoundCore- conname, statecode, datefirst, rounddate
#FirmBaseCore - firmname
#FundBaseCore - fund name, firstinvdate
These are my initial listings and I will come back to update them if needed.
The second part of the initial stage has been to pull data from the SDC Platinum platform with updated dates to make the pull as recent as possible.
