A new record
As software applications that use SQL databases grow in functionality, so do the number of tables they use in the database. Not necessarily because they store more data but because they store more kinds of data. I believe PunBB, at least at the time I was working on it, had 17 tables. Microsoft’s App-V uses 46 tables. Ladok, the national system used for documentation of academic information at higher education institutions in Sweden, has 337 tables. But today, I almost fell out of my chair when I opened the database for CA Service Desk Manager, the service desk application we use in university IT. It has 2865 tables and 1388 views! Somebody likes to normalize their data.

What? 2865 tables? So many tables means many subs-systems that I can’t imagine… :)
I’d say look at it’s efficiency. Perhaps it’s a table #1 (firstname), table #2 (lastname) kinda deal! ;)
Hey Rickard! I found your website while troubleshooting a Mac server video issue (oddly enough) and began reading your blog. Looks like you stopped writing here a year ago. Kids will do that to you. I hope that the baby and the wife are doing well. Would love to see more posts sometime.
Kids will indeed do that to you :) Apart from having a son, I really don’t have an excuse for not writing anything. Your comment is duly noted.
Hi,
I did a search on your name as it appears at the bottom of the CHORDIE page and was wondering if that’s you?
If so, I would like to express my appreciation for giving this ol’ fart a place to hang out with other guitarists. It’s really very kind of you!
If I’m mistaken, please excuse me. I have no earthly idea of what you’re writing about up there.
All the best!

If some one needs to be updated with latest technologies therefore he must be pay a visit this web page

I visit day-to-day some web sites and information sites to read articles, however this blog presents feature
based articles.
Enviei um e-mail para Facebook há quase um mês.
I think everything posted was actually very reasonable.
However, think about this, suppose you typed a catchier title?
I mean, I don’t want to tell you how to run your website, however what if you
added something that grabbed folk’s attention? I mean A
new record | Rickard Andersson is kinda boring. You should peek
at Yahoo’s home page and see how they create post titles
to get people to click. You might try adding a video or a picture or two to grab
people interested about what you’ve got to say. In my opinion,
it would make your website a little bit more interesting.
