NIX data model

The entity-relation schema below shows all entities that are defined in the NIX data model. To illustrate relations between the entities we use the crow-foot notation: foo –0< bar indicates that foo can contain zero to many bar objects. foo –|< bar denotes that there has to be at least one object of the bar type.
