Help With Theory - Urgent

Hello,

I am having a problem with my team mates believing that primary keys need to be unique. I have the following data listed below and I am getting a violation of a primary key constraint. The primary keys for this table are request, business_req_id and test_case_id. I beleive the error is happening due to the data not being unique. Am I correct?

Thank you.

Relationship Between T-Sql And Set Theory

Nov 20, 2006

I have always heard that much of t-sql is based on "set theory". I had Set theory in high school and I remember it as being simple Unions, Intersections, Differences of Sets. By a Set I mean a collection such as {2,5,7,8,9, ...) That could well described a single row in a table. By unioning several of these rows we could end up with a table.

But how does that relate to t-sql such as

select * from <table name> Where <condition 1> ?



Is it simply that the result returned by the query is a Set? (if so, a Set is simply being used as a synonym for a Collection. No set theory involved.)



TIA,

Database Design Theory

Jun 28, 2006

I have been tasked with creating a Data Warehouse.

Problem is that old storage vs reporting debate.

I have determined that the data that I will recieve and store will be like follows (simplified form) for expandability

KEY FldKEy FldData DateTime AuditTrail

Daily I will use this data based on use input process this data into the following format and say
if fldkey/ flddata open a cycle.
populate row with null close date
if fldkey/ flddata closes cycle
update row with date

If fldkey/ flddata changes a cutable value
update row

if fldkey/ flddata changes a cutable value (type 2 table)
insert a row into detail update value and obsolete previous row.


KEY DateStart DateEnd FLDDATA1 FLDDATE2 Op_Cl_IND HEADER Record

KEY EFFdate OBSDATE FLDdata3 FLDData4 Detail Records
KEY EFFdate OBSDATE FLDdata3 FLDData4
KEY EFFdate OBSDATE FLDdata3 FLDData4

Problem: FLDKey is a finite count however the max is undefined.

IS there any way to solve the problem of not being able to nail down users to tell you what they want to cut by. What I have been instructed by mgr (old IDMS) is that they wish to see all on the FldData and have the ability to cut by all of it. However the Flddata could be anything (cannot be indexed).

400,000,000 rows at least.

Do I need to nail the users down or am I am missing something.

Sorry if so cryptic

:(

I/O Component Bottleneck Theory

I understand that there is much involved in figuring up I/Othroughput, but I'm hoping the answer to the following question willbe a simple A, B OR C.Given the configuration below, what hardware component wouldbottleneck first.A. Drive Spindle ThroughputB. SCSI ControllerC. Other Component(if so what component?)Configuration:Controller: Ultra320RAID Config: RAID 5Drives on RAID: 14 - 73gb/15k - SCSI DrivesType of Writes: RandomQuestion Background:I currently have the configuration above on a local box. Our companyhas ordered a SAN and and has space set aside. What I'm trying toacertain is whether or not I'd be better off staying local or ifputting my DB on a SAN would be more beneficial.Other Notes:I've determined using a formula that determines the max theoreticalI/O operations/sec for the # of drives (spindles) and RAID Config...but I've not been able to establish a relationship betweenOperation/sec -> MB/Sec. I'm sure this is for obvious reasons...If anyone has had a related scenario, I'd be interested in hearingyour thoughts.Thanks,Ornac

Theory Question: What Is A Join Predicate?

Oct 25, 2004

Hi, our application is failing sometimes, with some select queries. After making traces in the database, I found the following error: Missing join predicate.
I googled that, and I only found this useless tip:

Missing Join Predicate: Indicates whether or not the query in question has a join predicate. If not, this can cause the Query Optimizer to produce a less than optimized query plan. The fix to this is to add a join predicate.

So, I dont know what a join predicate is... maybe I used it, but I don't know it by that name.

Thanks!

Db Theory Advice Multiple Catagories Per Item

Jun 14, 2004

My co worker designed a database where retail items can be placed in multiple catagories. This seems odd to me..... In general, Isnt it more normal than not to be only one catarory for each item? For example, lets say I was selling a bowling ball with a picture of Mickey Mouse on it. I can then find this item in the "Mickey Mouse" catagory or in the "bowling ball" catagory but in the database the bowling ball has only one catagoryID. When I worked for a multi-million dollar corporate retail store , an item was listed once in only one catagroy. But i am sure items can be viewed

I know there isnt a single rule, I am just looking for a solution. How should the database sturucture be built with this in mind starting out with what is listed below???? Mabey an attributes table?

Items
ItemID ItemName CatagoryID

Catagories
CatagoryID CatagoryName

MSacceess Upsize Question On Connections And Theory

Mar 6, 2007

Hi all,

I have a general theory question for best practices about upsizing an msaccess 2003 split database design to use SQL server instead of the .mdb for data storage.

My data has grown close to msaccess limit, and ive started experiencing lost connections and corruptions frequently. So the next step is to upsize to SQL.

So far DTS seems to do a better job with bringing in the tables and data (then the upsizewizard).

Does any one have a suggestion on how to deal with the front end connecting the sql backend ?

i understand an ADP project file uses OLE connection, is that a better solution then linked tables directly into SQL threw ODBC ?

Reason i ask is the linked tables seem to not break as many things inside the code.

thanks for any suggestions,

jon

SQL Server 2008 :: If Exists Placement Theory For Optional Tables

Nov 4, 2015

I like writing concise and compact sql code without cursors if possible. My current dilemma has me stuck though.I have 3 tables, but one of them is optionally used and contains a key element of TimeOut to determine which Anesthesia CrnaID to use. It is the optionally used part that has me stumped.

Surgery table
CaseID
Patient
(Sample data: 101,SallyDoe 102,JohnDoe)

Anesthesia table
CaseID
CrnaID
(Sample data:
101,Melvin
102,Bart
102,Jack)

AnesthesiaTime table (this table is optionally used, only if the crna's take a break on long cases)
CaseID
CrnaID
TimeIn
TimeOut
(Sample data:
102,Jack,0800,1030
102,Bart,1030,1130
102,Jack,1130,1215)

Select Patient INNER JOIN Anesthesia produced too many case results. So, I figured out there is an AnesthesiaTime table that only gets used if the anesthesia guys take time-outs. That doesn't happen all the time. I could use TOP 1 on the Anesthesia table, but technically I need to read the AnesthesiaTime table and locate the last time and pull that crna, Jack. I'm not sure how to deal with an optional table. I believe the IF Exists will be pertinent, but not sure of how to build this query. I've tried subquery without success.

Parameterized Queries Running Slower Than Non-parameterized Queries

Jul 20, 2005

HelloWhen I use a PreparedStatement (in jdbc) with the following query:SELECT store_groups_idFROM store_groupsWHERE store_groups_id IS NOT NULLAND type = ?ORDER BY group_nameIt takes a significantly longer time to run (the time it takes forexecuteQuery() to return ) than if I useSELECT store_groups_idFROM store_groupsWHERE store_groups_id IS NOT NULLAND type = 'M'ORDER BY group_nameAfter tracing the problem down, it appears that this is not preciselya java issue, but rather has to do with the underlying cost of runningparameterized queries.When I open up MS Enterprise Manager and type the same query in - italso takes far longer for the parameterized query to run when I usethe version of the query with bind (?) parameters.This only happens when the table in question is large - I am seeingthis behaviour for a table with > 1,000,000 records. It doesn't makesense to me why a parameterized query would run SLOWER than acompletely ad-hoc query when it is supposed to be more efficient.Furthermore, if one were to say that the reason for this behaviour isthat the query is first getting compliled and then the parameters aregetting sent over - thus resulting in a longer percieved executiontime - I would respond that if this were the case then A) it shouldn'tbe any different if it were run against a large or small table B) thisperformance hit should only be experienced the first time that thequery is run C) the performance hit should only be 2x the time for thenon-parameterized query takes to run - the difference in response timeis more like 4-10 times the time it takes for the non parameterizedversion to run!!!Is this a sql-server specific problem or something that would pertainto other databases as well? I there something about the coorect use ofbind parameters that I overall don't understand?If I can provide some hints in Java then this would be great..otherwise, do I need to turn/off certain settings on the databaseitself?If nothing else works, I will have to either find or write a wrapperaround the Statement object that acts like a prepared statement but inreality sends regular Statement objects to the JDBC driver. I wouldthen put some inteligence in the database layer for deciding whetherto use this special -hack- object or a regular prepared statementdepending on the expected overhead. (Obviously this logic would onlybe written in once place.. etc.. IoC.. ) HOWEVER, I would desperatelywant to avoid doing this.Please help :)

Queries In SQL

Aug 3, 2000

I just upsized my Access2K db to SQL. I am using Front Page 2000 for my website. When I had the database as Access, I was able to use one of my Access queries as my record source for my data base. I was able to choose between my queries AND my tables as the source for my records. Now that I've upsized, I am no longer given that choice. My only choices are the tables. Unfortunately, my database is designed to pull records from a query, not just a table. So my question is, in FP2000, how do I use a QUERY from my newly upsized SQL db as my record source?

Thank you all very much in advance.

Two Queries Necessary?

Oct 12, 2007

Hi and thanks for reading.

I have a query that requires multiple joins and has several one-to-many relationships with other tables. The basic query I have is this:

Code:


SELECT TOP 50 eventID,eventTitle,eventAbstract,eventInsertDate,eventUpdateDate,eventAuthID_fk,
eo.eventOccurrenceID,eo.eoDescription,eo.eoApprovedDate,
l.LocationID,l.LocationShortName,c.categoryID,c.categoryName,a.ageID,a.ageDescription
FROM enm_eventOccurrence eo INNER JOIN enm_events e ON e.eventID=eo.eoEventID_fk
LEFT JOIN (enm_categories_occurrence co LEFT JOIN enm_categories c ON c.categoryID=co.co_categoryID_fk) ON eo.eventOccurrenceID=co.co_eventOccurrenceID_fk
LEFT JOIN (enm_location_occurrence lo LEFT JOIN location l ON lo.lo_locationID_fk=l.LocationID) ON lo.lo_eventOccurrenceID_fk=eo.eventOccurrenceID
LEFT JOIN (enm_ages_occurrence ao LEFT JOIN enm_ages a ON ao.ao_ageID_fk=a.ageID) ON ao.ao_eventOccurrenceID_fk=eo.eventOccurrenceID



This works, but it will pull out multiple rows for the same eventOccurrenceID (the PK for eventOccurrence) because of the several one-to-many relationships. For instance, there could be multiple categories, locations and ages for one event occurrence, so this will produce multiple rows.
But, since I need to get only a limited of rows, the TOP will fail since there are multiple rows for each, and there's no way to tell how many rows exactly will come out (so just multiplying the TOP value is out of the question).
Using DISTINCT or GROUP BY also seems to be out of the question, since I need to have the fields from the one-to-many tables in the SELECT list but cannot GROUP BY them.

My proposed solution is to run a query selecting only the eventOccurrenceID and using the WHERE information that the user is requesting, then running another query (with the full select list) with a "WHERE eventOccurrenceID IN (".
But, I hate using two queries and just wonder if there's a better way around this.

Appreciate the help, and thanks for reading.

What To Use For SQL Queries?

Feb 15, 2007

I frequently need to run ad hoc queries against a database, capturing the output in a text file. In SQL Server 2000 I used Query Analyzer with no problems. In 2005 I'm trying to use the query function in Management Studio-but the output is (so far) unusable due to a Null character (hex 00) that follows every 'real' character. I assume this is due to Unicode but haven't found any way (yet) to tell it to just output in plain everyday text. (ASCII or ANSI-either will work.)

Is there some other tool I can use for SQL queries?

Thanks.

Sql Queries

Jul 2, 2007

It is given the following schema of relations:

Donators(Id <<PK>>, Name, Surname, IdCity <<FK(City)>>, Group, Sex, Age);
Files(IdFile <<PK>>, Donator <<FK(Donators)>>, Date, Type);
City(IdCity <<PK>>, Name, State);

I need to find a query for each of the following:

1. name, surname of the plasma donators(type='plasma'), with Sex='F' and younger than 45 years old.

My solution:
SELECT d.Name, d.Surname
FROM Donators d, Filles f
WHERE d.Id=d.IdFile AND f.type='plasma' AND d.sex='F' AND d.age<45

2. average age of the plasma donators

SELECT AVG(d.age)
FROM Donators d, Files f
WHERE f.type='plasma'

3. the states which have more donators

I have no idea how to do it

4. the id's of the plasma donators from Chicago

SELECT d.id
FROM Donators d, Files f, City c
WHERE d.id=f.idfile AND d.idcity=c.idcity AND f.type='plasma' AND c.name='Chicago'

5. the id's of the cities without plasma donators

SELECT c.idcity
FROM City c
WHERE NOT IN (SELECT c.idcity
FROM City c, Donators d, Files f
WHERE f.idfile=d.id AND f.type='plasma' AND d.idcity=c.idcity)

6. remove the donators older than 80, after having removed the corresponding files

No idea how to do it

In conclusion, could you tell me if my queries are correct and help me with the others?

Thanks

SUM Of Two Sub-queries

Jun 26, 2012

Table 'dbo.tblonenet_sdt_proj_hold' Schema as follows:

cust_id int
dateon DATETIME
dateoff DATETIME

There are two possibilites

1) Its no longer on hold and so a dateon and dateoff value will be in the table.

2) Its still on hold and so dateoff will be NULL.

I want to add the total time its been on hold between the two dates and there could be multiple entires for cust_id 802

SELECT Hon,Hoff FROM

(SELECT sum(dbo.GetBusinessdays(dbo.tblonenet_sdt_proj_hol d.dateon,getdate()))
FROM dbo.tblonenet_sdt_proj_hold
WHERE cust_id='802' AND dateoff IS NULL) AS HON

Queries???

Mar 18, 2004

I'm confused.

I am creating a interaction application for alton towers available through a website (using asp.net). This website is connected to a database(sql server 2000) containing infomation on different shops, rides, restaurants and facilities at the park.

I have inputted data to my database. The user should be able to do searches such as:
rides (and shops or all) available in a certain area.
rides in a certain area above a certain height rescrictions.
etc

I'm confused. I have used SQL statements before and I know it is possible to retrieve this information from the database, but how should I go about this and how should I be storing this information so that I am able to call it from the front teir.

I have read up on views, stored procedures and triggers and I'm a bit lost. Should I be creating all the possible queries and then store them as a view (or stored procedure) I thought I would just have to write a sql statement but it seems a lot more confusing...

and what about triggers and user defined statements??

PLEASE help, I have a deadline in a week : (
