I'm looking for a solution that let me depend on the situations make my select query with or without joins.

this is simple but when I have many situation and more tables to join it grows a
lot.

Do they take up space, or are records compressed when fields are left empty

But if 90% of the transformers in use have 40% of their data fields set to null,
will they still consume the same storage space as they would if all fields
contained data?

rom a coding standpoint, a single master Transformer table is far easier to manage, and is the approach I'd prefer to follow. But if 90% of the transformers in use have 40% of their data fields set to null, will they still consume the same storage space as they would if all fields contained data?
