In this chapter, we learned about the CDM, the CDS, and how to extend the data model in the CDS with entities, relationships, and fields. We also introduced solutions to manage change.
This chapter is the foundation for all further customization work. The skills you have learned will enable you to modify the data model in the CDS to meet your specific business requirements.
The contents of this chapter are foundational knowledge for the remainder of the book, and creating a data model is a key step in building your solution. The next chapter is about canvas apps. This chapter will explain the purpose of canvas apps, and how to create canvas apps using your data model.
