How should data be structured to support Join Operations in a one-to-many relationship?

Answer»

Among the most common types of database relationships are the ones involving one-to-many relationships.  Consider the example of the Customer and Mobile table. 

Customer Table:

Customer_IDFirst_NameLast_NameEmail
1SashaFranksashafrank@gmail.com
2IshaJoshiishajoshi@gmail.com
3Danish Khandanishkhan@gmail.com

Mobile Table:

Mobile_IDCustomer_IDOrderPlaced_Date
112022-03-24
232021-05-22
322022-01-05
412020-10-14
522021-08-29

A customer can own many mobile phones, but a mobile belongs to one customer only. Therefore, we've defined the Foreign Key column (Customer_ID) in the Mobile table allowing us to perform SELECT queries with JOIN clauses fairly easily.
