Not impressed? Help us improve this database!
Send suggestions or requests for new or custom databases and be sure to include necessary field namess ...

I have 2 tables, "sims" (as in mobile phone sim cards) and "phones" (as
in mobile phones).  I can add any number of sim cards to the "sims"
table and any number of mobile phones to the "phones" table.  Simple enough.
Rule 1: A sim card can either be in a phone, or not in a phone.  ...

CALL FOR PARTICIPATION
======================
The 8th IEEE International Conference on Data Mining (ICDM'08)

We have been considering improving the performance of date-based
queries by maintaining two tables: one that contains a row for each
event, and another that aggregates events by month.
We could support any user query with three table queries: one query

I'm looking at a medium/large web application with 72 tables on a
company intranet. Two of the tables are unusual; they appear to have
been created to avoid having too many additional (very small) tables in
the database. The rough structure of these tables is like this:

If you need some examples of problem solving using database
technology, here are a couple examples I developed in mysql, but could
be done with any recent database technology:
Hexagonal puzzle solution:

The call for speakers for Data Services World Fall 2008 is open until
September 26, 2008. Data Services World is co-located with SOAWorld,
Cloud Computing Conference and Expo and Virtualization Conference in San
Jose, California.

When time comes to build transactional databases (as opposed to data
wharehouses), I belong to the school that STRONGLY believe in
normalizing data with high integrity mechanisms.  I know all the
performance cons but IMHO, pros largely overwhelme.

I have 2 tables, "sims" (as in mobile phone sim cards) and "phones" (as

table and any number of mobile phones to the "phones" table.  Simple enough.

This might be off topic for this group; if so please direct me to a
more
appropriate group.
I have 20 years of programming experience (hobby / personal scale)

What are the best books on relational database implementation, and by
this I do not mean how to design your database schema, but how to
write an actual database, what the on disk data structures would be
like, caching, how to implement transactions, etc.

Not sure if this is the right group but I've come across a problem I'm at a
loss to model properly. Here's the setup:
A model contains three entities ("Level"s) describing projects:
- Project Family records, each referencing several

I have a fundamental doubt regarding replication in databases.
If the isolation level is set to Serializable, why cant we just ship
the transaction statements from the master to the backup and replay
those transactions. Why do we adopt complicated solutions like log

I am learning about database systems, and I am reading a book called
"Physical Database Design".
It gets to a bit about a large sequential access (e.g. for a full
table scan), and does the following:

I have something like:
TABLE A
a PK
TABLE B
