A '''platform-specific model''' (PSM) is a model of a software or business system that is linked to a specific technological platform (e.g. a specific [[programming language]], [[operating system]] or [[database]]). Platform-specific models are indispensable for the actual implementation of a system.
 
For example, a need to implement an online shop. The system will need to store information regarding users, goods, credit cards, etc. The designer might decide to use for this purpose an [[Oracle database]]. For this to work, the designer will need to express concepts (e.g. the concept of a user) in a [[relational model]] using the [[Oracle database|Oracle]]'s [[SQL]] dialect. This [[Oracle database|Oracle]]'s specific [[relational model]] is an example of a ''Platform-specific model''.
