Sometimes I just wanna do some adhoc analysis and I need to do like four joins because some monkey decided to split everything into it's own table without thinking about the people that would actually have to use the db.
- sgarland 1y agoYour one-off analysis doesn’t trump the normal OLTP workloads.
- zeroCalories 1y agoI regularly have to do queries. I'm trying to understand my non-trivial product to figure out what work items will have, or have had, impact. Sometimes I'm in a meeting and need to do some real time analysis. My ability to understand and use the data is actually more important than a slightly higher database bill. And I thought we were ignoring the poor performance of normalization?
