I find that code written towards fulfilling some specific database design is usually a nightmare about 20minutes into the project. You end up with garbage semantics and interfaces because you're building an entire app for the sake of storing stuff in a database. It's an ass backwards approach to software development imo, software is about solving a human problem and data persistence is just one of the steps in the solution. Instead figure out what data your consumers need, then figure out what domain objects can be extracted from that, then plan how you will persist those domain objects. You'll end up with less boilerplate, better naming of entities and services and you'll also find that the words your team uses to talk to each other make sense to your business people not just your dba.
