Introduction


An association represents the relationship between tables. There are two main types of associations: unidirectional and bidirectional. We will take a look at how to use associations with an example.

There are four main well-known types of relationships:

  • One-to-one

  • One-to-many

  • Many-to-one

  • Many-to-many

There are multiple ways to achieve these relationships.
