Is QA or testing a lot of overhead or not utilized properly?
From my experiences in software development (Eg. Waterfall ) I see it that most of the times it is the development team that sweats it out with the BA folk to get requirement clarity. The development folks then slog it out to meet deliverable deadlines. Where is the QA - they might be free - but will only hitch onto th...
Yes, agile is in part "geared towards reducing this 'waste' - getting testing involved early in the development so that issues get eliminated at the start?" The role of QA should be one where they are equal collaborators with developers and the business side of software development. They are the advocate for the custom...

I think that the idea of a special “empty” subdimension that is used if there is no real subdimension is the best one. It makes the data model and the queries simple.

Auto increment field on update
I have a field called: update_count, which I need to reflect the number of times a row has been updated.

My question is then...
Auto-increment (aka "identity") columns are something completely different than "a column indicating the number of updates to a row". Even if a sequence (the "magic" behind identity columns) did work without gaps, you still have a single sequence for the entire table, not for each row. If you want to track how often a ...

Every additional RAID you create would need to update its superblocks. It would drag performance down, not surprisingly. For RAID-10 there's no point with multiple RAIDs creation, use LVM-2 on top of it, that's all.

Per your testing based on my comments, it does seem like it's related to the cardinality of the data. I.e.

The low-level tools are preferred, because they give you much more control on what's going. I suspect some of leading sectors of the disk is bad. That's why restoring of...

Tablespaces are not part of any database, so they are not included in [CODE] output. If you want to dump and restore the tablespaces as well, use [CODE] in addition of the [CODE] you are performing (and restore the tablespaces first). If you want to ignore the tablespaces in the dump, use [CODE] .

Why is this SQL query with UNION significantly faster than the same query without?
I'm trying to optimize a query, which never completes on Postgres 12.7. It takes hours, even days, make the CPU goes 100%, and never returns: [CODE] I randomly tried to rewrite it using UNION instead, and I believe it's equivalent. Basically there's two parts in the query, one for type = 1 or 3, and one for type = 2. [...
The tolerable one with the OR got lucky, because it found 100 matching rows with types of 1 or 3, before it found any of type 2 which had to be checked against the other table. The intolerable one apparently did have to do the check against the other table, and it does it in a very slow way, by looping over all the row...

403 is usually Directory Browsing Forbidden (checking Apache's error log should confirm this). Is there a default document (index.php) in your [CODE] directory? You've aliased Symfony into [CODE] , so you'd have to hit [CODE] to access it, not the top level [CODE] .

Active Directory group as a schema in SQL Server

No, an Active Directory group cannot be the schema, though I suppose you could name a schema with the same text as your AD group, but that does not get you more auditability. If individual logins are all members of the AD group, they still appear in the database by default as their login name, not the AD group name. (Y...
