Realization of a data domain
 
To describe all the elements of the application structure implemented by a data store, you must define a Realization on the data stores in question.
*A realization describes the relationship between a logical entity and a physical entity that implements it. The physical entity gives the list of logical entities that it implements.
To describe that a data store is implementing an element in the application structure:
1. Open the dialog box of the data store that interests you.
2. Select the Characteristics tab and the Realization subtab.
3. In the Component Realization section, click New.
The window for data store realization opens.
4. In the Realization field, specify the logical application or the logical application system in question.
5. In the Component Realized field, from among the components available, chose the component implemented.
6. Click OK.
The data store realization appears in the properties page.
