Case Study: Galen College of Nursing achieves better data modeling and governance with SqlDBM

How Galen College Uses Modeling as a Competitive Advantage

Galen College of Nursing, a higher education institution, faced challenges with unclear database architecture and technical debt due to a lack of a formal relational database modeling tool. Their data team needed a solution to understand their existing environment, establish a modeling framework, and easily share models with stakeholders. They turned to SqlDBM to address these needs.

SqlDBM provided a web-hosted, feature-rich solution that enabled the team to quickly reverse engineer and optimize their key databases. The platform’s sharing capabilities allowed models to be easily distributed without complex software installations. As a result, Galen College successfully established a modeling practice, creating a "business blueprint" for their data systems and laying the groundwork for future governance and observability initiatives with SqlDBM.
