Re: whats diffrence between in two query in performance respect

The difference is that one is written out as a subquery.

It's a micro-optimization IMHO, but you can use the Management Studio[^] to check the execution plan and compare both versions.

Database for Bridge Asset Management

Hi everyone,

I wanted to ask a question that was confusing me how to design the db.This bridge database that i was going to design has 3 different districts(Locations) say A,B and C.These districts have different road segments,sections.I temporarily designed the db using separate tables but having the same fields.As i said these tables only differ by the thing i mentioned.

I know I'm not following the design rules,so i need you to help me on that.

Thanks

And when the next district is added, you add another table?
No! Create a table for the districts, and then use "foreign keys" to connect to the sections table.

BTW there are fields that provide the bridge information,it's bridge number(p.k),name,design year,asset value and other fields.
Now there are 3 different districts A,B and C.Under District A,there are different sections and road segments that correspond to A only.Same thing goes to B and C.These districts are not related in any way in other words.
That's why i created 3 separate tables based on these districts.

How? Yes, I could sum up some widely used constructs, but that's not a decent alternative for a good design.

There's explanation on database-normalization in the wikipedia, and various articles on CodeProject. Alternatively, you could fake a design[^].

I'll gladly help with the normalization rules if you get stuck Smile | :)

face time out when run query with nested select

hi to all
when i run this query i faced with timeout

SQL

DELETE FROM bml.LoanInstallment WHERE ID IN (select * from wfInstanceNodes where ID=@nodeID)

this occurred when nested select return null and i think it is because of that i have no index on id;
and i set index to id but still this query faced with time out

note that bml.LoanInstallment has 11000000 record and this query run without problem for a table with
a few records.
thanks for any help

Do you run into a timeout when you do a SELECT instead of a DELETE? E.g. SELECT COUNT(ID) FROM bml... etc.? And how many entries are to be deleted?
Are there indices for the ID columns in both tables?
Are there any constraints, e.g. an OnDeleteCascade?

id is uniqueness and
and one entries finally will be deleted.
and i don't have any constraint on bml table
thanks in advanced

Your subquery should not select "all" columns, only the ID-column.

ok i use select id instead of select * but im still face with timeout
i think that this is because of that my nested select return an empty column
what you thinks ?
how can i handle this problem?
thanks for answer

A command-timeout or a connection-timeout? How long does the query take when run on the server directly?

Can you post the schema of the tables here? It would be weird if you'd select the same key that you're filtering on.

I'm pretty sure that you can select "where in null" without hitting performance-problems of said magnitude.

Personally, I don't like sub-selects (they seem so 90s), I'd rather JOIN them.

(Provided your system allows it)

-- Transact-SQL extension
USE AdventureWorks2012;
GO
DELETE FROM Sales.SalesPersonQuotaHistory 
FROM Sales.SalesPersonQuotaHistory AS spqh
INNER JOIN Sales.SalesPerson AS sp
ON spqh.BusinessEntityID = sp.BusinessEntityID
WHERE sp.SalesYTD > 2500000.00;

the "SQL Server Services" entry shows an error message saying

database mirroring / database replication.

Hi all

In c# forum i asked the below question

Hi all
 
Please clear my doubt.
I have one server system where i installed sql server.
5 client machines accessing that.
now suppose if there is any power fluctuation like it's coming for 5 min and again going and so on.
So for this kind of situation, how to save the data or how to update the database each second.??
Is it possible that at a time we update the client database also and server database also.?
i.e at button click it should update both client and server database..
 
Please help..

Then i got the suggestion of database mirroring / database replication.

I am very much new to this.

Please need suggestion from you guys.

Google the topic. And buy a book or perhaps two.

Then set up some test servers. And test it. After you figure out the pro/cons of the possible different ways to do this.

Naturally of course would also need to consider other types of failures, which means that you need the two server located in different geographic areas. That of course means you must not only consider the methodology of replication but the cost. And find hosting companies to host at least on of the servers.

You must also test it and insure that the servers continue to run in production.

With the cost you might also consider the possibility that doing all of this yourself might not only cost a lot (if you are being paid) but will also have a high risk. Consequently finding a hosting service that provides all of the above but be more effective.

That cannot be solved by software, you'll need an UPS. It's simple; if the power to your server is cut when it is writing, the system might die and no longer boot.

Code-Hunt wrote:

That'd hardly help; how long does your server take to boot? You reckon' it had time to rollback a failed transaction?

Code-Hunt wrote:

Yes. Take your IDbCommand-code (the block where your C# is executing the SQL), and press Ctrl-C and Ctrl-V. Simply execute every command twice, once to your server, and a local copy.

Return Results of a Join Using Stored Proc

Hi all, I am trying to display the results of a left outer join between two tables on my web app but there seems to be problems with my stored procedure. I have tried to put the results of the left outer join into a new table by using the following stored procedure:

USE [Payable]

CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[getEmployeeData]
AS
BEGIN
	SELECT * 
INTO NewTable
FROM Employees
LEFT OUTER JOIN Hourly_Employees
ON Employees.Employee_ID_PK = Hourly_Employees.Hourly_Employee_ID
END

Please point out why it does not work, thanks in advance.
