Relational databases define a strict structure and provide a rigid way to maintain data for a software application. Apache's open source CouchDB offers a new method of storing data, in what is referred to as a schema-free document-oriented database model. Instead of the highly structured data storage of a relational model, CouchDB stores data in a semi-structured fashion, using a JavaScript-based view model for generating structured aggregation and report results from these semi-structured documents. CouchDB has been developed from the ground up with Web applications as the primary focus and has its sights on becoming the de-facto database for Web application development.
RESTORE DATABASE Example. MS SQL is a pain, pain, pain.
Hint: Use e.g.
RESTORE FILELISTONLY FROM DISK='C:\MyData.bak'
to get the necessary information.
Here the command from the cited blog entry:
ALTER DATABASE MyData
SET SINGLE_USER WITH
ROLLBACK IMMEDIATE
RESTORE DATABASE MyData
FROM DISK = 'C\:BackupMyData.bak'
WITH MOVE 'MyData_Data' TO 'C:\Data\datafile.mdf',
MOVE 'MyData_Log' TO 'C:\Data\logfile.ldf',
REPLACE
Ben Nadel discusses database index design, including Primary and Secondary indexes, surrogate and natural keys, uniqueness constraints, foreign keys, covering indexes, and even cow-path paving. His hope here is write the article on database index design that he wishes he had had access to way earlier in his web development career.
SQL is a programming language used for querying and managing data in databases and has become the backbone of modern analytics. Yet, there is no one go-to place for advance analytics using SQL. In…
