ASSESSMENT DESCRIPTION:
This assessment is an individual project about the design and implementation of a document database.

An online clothing store deals with pre-loved clothes and handles both buy and sell requests. They want their
data to be stored and want you to design and create the solution.

The company has thousands of buyers and sellers from all over the world and handles shipments too.

Customers who want to sell their clothes provide different information related to the clothes that can include
but is not limited to size of clothing, color, fabric, type, no of years used, condition etc. Customers also have to
provide their own information that includes customer number, name and address, contact info, and some other
additional attributes. Investigate more to see what other additional attributes need to be stored in the database
relevant to the clothing and customers.

The buyers can search for different clothes depending on the size, type, color of clothes. They may also want to
filter clothes based on condition or price.

When buyers want to search clothes, they want to see the customer contact info to be seen together with
clothes. The buyer and seller can contact directly to each other too and pay a commission to the store if a deal is
made. If a customer wants to seal a deal via the store, the store will handle the shipment too.

Based on the information provided above, answer the following:

1. Justify the use of Document database and explain what other NOSQL model can be used instead if not
Document Database.
2. Create a database and collection(s) that can hold documents. Make sure that you have at least 20
documents from each category.
3. Decide what fields should be used for creating index and create at least two indices on appropriate
fields. (Hint: go through the description above to see what are the search criteria to index your fields)
4. Apply following find queries:
a. Finds all documents
b. Finds clothing items that are available in a certain postcode.
c. Find Clothing items that have a price tag between $50 to $100.
d. Find clothing items that are available in a certain postcode and have a price tag between $50 to
$100.
e. Apply projection in find operation.
5. Apply a sort query in ascending order on No of years used attribute.
6. Apply a sort query on price of clothing in descending order.
7. Update the postcode of customers. Show the results where multiple customers with same postcode
have the value updated.
8. Apply a 20% discount on some clothing item.
9. Drop the index on any one of the fields that you have created in Question 2.

GENERAL NOTES FOR ASSESSMENT TASKS

Content for Assessment Task papers should incorporate a formal introduction, main points and conclusion.

Appropriate academic writing and referencing are inevitable academic skills that you must develop and
demonstrate in work being presented for assessment. The content of high quality work presented by a student
must be fully referenced within-text citations and a Reference List at the end. Kent strongly recommends you
refer to the Academic Learning Support Workshop materials available on the Kent Learning Management System
(Moodle). For details please click the link http://moodle.kent.edu.au/kentmoodle/mod/folder/view.php?id=3606
and download the file titled “Harvard Referencing Workbook”. This Moodle Site is the location for Workbooks
and information that are presented to Kent Students in the ALS Workshops conducted at the beginning of each
Trimester.

Kent recommends a minimum of FIVE (5) references in work being presented for assessment. Unless otherwise
specifically instructed by your Lecturer or as detailed in the Unit Outline for the specific Assessment Task, any
paper with less than five (5) references may be deemed not meeting a satisfactory standard and possibly be failed.

Content in Assessment tasks that includes sources that are not properly referenced according to the “Harvard
Referencing Workbook” will be penalised.

Marks will be deducted for failure to adhere to the word count if this is specifically stated for the Assessment Task
in the Unit Outline. As a general rule there is an allowable discretionary variance to the word count in that it is
generally accepted that a student may go over or under by 10% than the stated length.

GENERAL NOTES FOR REFERENCING

References are assessed for their quality. Students should draw on quality academic sources, such as books,
chapters from edited books, journals etc. The textbook for the Unit of study can be used as a reference, but not
the Lecturer Notes. The Assessor will want to see evidence that a student is capable of conducting their own
research. Also, in order to help Assessors determine a student’s understanding of the work they cite, all in-text
references (not just direct quotes) must include the specific page number(s) if shown in the original. Before
preparing your Assessment Task or own contribution, please review this ‘YouTube’ video (Avoiding Plagiarism
through Referencing) by clicking on the following link: link:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2q0NlWcTq1YA search for peer-reviewed journal articles may also assist

students. These type of journal articles can be located in the online journal databases and can be accessed from
the Kent Library homepage. Wikipedia, online dictionaries and online encyclopaedias are acceptable as a starting
point to gain knowledge about a topic, but should not be over-used – these should constitute no more than 10%
of your total list of references/sources. Additional information and literature can be used where these are
produced by legitimate sources, such as government departments, research institutes such as the National Health
and Medical Research Council (NHMRC), or international organisations such as the World Health Organisation
(WHO). Legitimate organisations and government departments produce peer reviewed reports and articles and
are therefore very useful and mostly very current. The content of the following link explains why it is not
acceptable to use non-peer reviewed websites (Why can't I just Google?):
