Relatedly, don’t be afraid of (database) tables.
It’s okay, you really can have hundreds of tables, your DBMS can handle it.
Obviously don’t create them for their own sake, but there’s no reason to force reuse or generic design for different things.
- necovek 2y agoI think with databases, it's natural to go for normalized forms for the benefits you get with a relational database. Unless you don't have anyone with any semblance of DB design, you usually have more friction when you want to de-normalize the DB instead. At least, that's been my experience, but I did have the luck of mostly working with experts in DB design.
