I'm jealous.
I've only gotten to big gig levels.

We recently sized an Oracle system at 6TB, we can identify 3tb as the initial data coming from part of the trading system.
Really big data is only useful if your structure is good and your data clean. Unfortunately our legacy systems were designed by incompetent, moronic, lazy, uneducated, idiots who only had a vague idea about the business and absolutely no idea about data structures.

This is in fact the standard methodology for database development in 99% of companies worldwide.

Because we're using continuous integration with tfs 2010, and want to launch the test sets while the build server is... building. If we have to copy our stored procedures to the test database then this will require a manual action each time a sp is updated, which I think, is a bad idea. Less humans around, less problems.
Apart from checking bugs, we'd also like to guarantee that the deploy succeed regardless of the environment (dev, tst, post test, production).
I know this seems a bit strange since we should only test on one of those, but we have numerous errors due to deployment issues (large amount of files to merge, a lot of manual actions) and we'd like to prevent that, or at least, be warned as soon as possible.
Thanks

Never have been able to get the hang of automated testing/deployment I guess I'm old school, I want a human driving the deployment.

It works fine for us, but we still have to do some stuff manually.
We start having huge problems when humans begin to interact. That's actually why we wanted to validate each deployment step, because there's always something wrong. A file not merged correctly, something forgotten on the database, etc. and it implies a big loss of time to go and repair everything... each time...
I suppose your humans are better than ours!

Ow, crap, I just had to pick myself up off the floor, possibly we have simpler deployments and I'll take it that we have a very good team of developers but the main systems deployment not a chance!

Heh
We have quite complex deployment issues right now indeed. We're maintaining a lot of branches for our customers. And it's not always as easy as it's supposed to be when the time has come to merge all the stuff together after a long period of time.

You cannot set password on the SQL Server mdf file as you do with an Access mdb file. Use SQL Server Authentication to restrict what users can see.

I setup a simple sample program to expose a problem I have with the EntityFramework.
A simple table contains 3 fields
contactguid UNIQUEIDENTIFIER Default: NEWID()
surname VARCHAR(255)
forename VARCHAR(255)
I have created an EntityFramework model for it and wrote this code
policy = dbContext.CreateObject<tblContact>();
policyHolder.Surname = "Blog";
policyHolder.Forename = "Joe";
dbContext.SaveChanges();
The issue is that whatever I do the query set to the database will look like this:
exec sp_executesql N'insert [dbo].[tblContact]([ContactGUID], [Surname], [Forename])
values ('00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000', 'Blog', 'Joe')
I was not expecting the ContactGUID to be set with zeros but the default NEWID() to be returned to the client.
This is not happening.
I have tried to change about every property of the contactguid field (particularly StoreGeneratedPattern) but nothing seems to have any action.
Did someone hit this problem?

Replying to my own message.
My good colleague Adam found an excellent blog post about this exact problem.
The solution to this problem is simple is to edit the your model edmx file.
In the property element which originaly was:
<Property Name="ContactGUID" Type="uniqueidentifier">
I need to add the StoreGeneratedPattern="Identity" attribute.
<Property Name="SectionGUID" Type="uniqueidentifier" Nullable="false" StoreGeneratedPattern="Identity">
The generated SQL then seems very good, as not only the default value are not overwritten but they are returned to the client in a single query.
declare @generated_keys table(ContactGUID uniqueidentifier)
insert [dbo].[dtblContact](surname, forname)
output inserted.ContactGUID into @generated_keys
values ('Blog', 'Joe')
select t.ContactGUID
from @generated_keys as g
join [dbo].dtblContact as t on g.ContactGUID = t.ContactGUID
where @@ROWCOUNT > 0

With simple inner join here is query which you need:
select p.poke_id, s.[Name] as Poke_Giver_Name,s2.[Name] as Poke_Receiver_Name
from students s
inner join Poke p on p.Poke_Giver_Id = s.Student_Id
inner join students s2 on s2.Student_Id = p.Poke_Receiver_Id

Did you actually consider typing that into a search engine before you asked the question - it really does save time doing just a little research before posing a question in the forums.
