When designing and creating a data model for a data-driven application, the records in tables must each be uniquely identifiable. By having a unique value associated with each record, individual records can be selected, updated, or deleted. Being able to uniquely identify records is so important and standard in a database system that databases allow those designing a database table to specify what column (or columns) make up the primary key.
