How does the spec store JSON on a table?
From this question, I quoted the docs , "MariaDB implements this as a LONGTEXT rather, as the JSON data type contradicts the SQL standard , and MariaDB's benchmarks indicate that performance is at least equivalent."* That spurred a comment I had to google and it appears that MariaDB now supports CHECK constraints. Not ...
SQL:2016 This is from my own read of ISO/IEC TR 19075-6:2017: SQL support for JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) Ignoring both (a) the track record of MySQL with regard to the spec, and (b) the fact that they're now implementing a JSON type . It seems as if they're referring to this, A [CODE] may have an optional [CODE]...

Central Management Server - can it manage itself?
I'm setting up a SQL Server 2012 lab on Windows 2008 R2 which has 5 SQL Servers. I registered [CODE] as my central management server and created a group under this server that includes all the servers and the CMS itself. I'm a bit confused since the documentation says the CMS cannot be a member of a group it maintains....
I had also previously assumed that this wasn't possible at all, until I started playing around with it. From what I can tell, the matching is only done by the server network name that's entered. If you attempt to add a server to the tree with the same network name, it won't allow it; however, if you use a different net...

Postgresql: Performance - SELECT with function in WHERE condition

And how to avoid this? Here's...
Your function (not stored procedure, which is a different thing in PostgreSQL) is probably marked as volatile. You should probably change the function so that it is instead marked as stable or immutable (assuming of course that one of those things is true of it) and then it should use the index fine.

The normal way to convert an enum value to a string in PostgreSQL is to cast it (with [CODE] ) or to simply rely on implicit conversion when, say, concatenating it to another string: [CODE] However, there's a catch: such conversions seem not to be considered immutable by Postgres. As a consequence, you get an error if ...
It is possible to rename an enum entry, so the cast is not [CODE] . If you are sure that you will never rename enum values, write your own conversion function that uses a cast internally and label the function [CODE] . Then PostgreSQL will trust that label, and it is up to you to fulfill the promise.

Storing terabytes of data in Azure SQL Server
I need to develop a Azure SQL server production system capable of storing a user item recommendations based on the user's purchase history, user health profile and item recommendations(around 415 MB). I know the approximate output over 13 months, the time the data has to be stored, and have calculated a need of around ...
Would the community have any inputs on my problem? Sure, these are my thoughts... a user item recommendations based on the user's purchase history, user health profile and item recommendations(around 415 MB) Sounds like a lot for a single user. How did you land on that number? have calculated a need of around 30 TB of ...

I'm not aware of anything similar in the literature, this might be too specific but I don't know everything. Anyway I think your approach makes sense.

How to remove broken DC from 2003 domain (with complications)
I have never been to heavily involved with managing AD2003 domain controllers. Now I get a broken domain dumped in my lap. I need some advice how to proceed. Here is the story: Earlier today I inherited an old, badly managed, 3 server domain from another division. (It was operated by an outsourced service-provider that...
Removing the failed DC should probably be the last thing you care about right now. You changed the IP address of the DC, which is presumably also the DNS server for the domain. You need to reconfigure the DC itself to use itself for a DNS server, and of course you have the reconfigure the client to use the DC as the DN...

Let's get philosophical for a minute. Has the number of objects changed from N? No?

Short answer: no. SharePoint is very intollerant to host name changes. What you can do is install the binaries, service packs and language packs. As long as you don't run psconfig.exe you will be able to sysprep and clone that machine. After cloning script psconfig to ease provisioning.

Does SES free tier extend to AWS Fargate?
Amazon SES offers a free tier that is eligible for applications running on EC2 instaces or in Elastic Beanstalk containers. However, am I also eligible for the free tier if I am using AWS Fargate? As far as I understand, formally Fargate is neither EC2 nor Beanstalk, so the rules written in the official AWS documentati...
I think Fargate is included in SES. I can find no direct reference but several indirect references so your mileage may vary. Here's my logic: What is Fargate AWS Fargate is a serverless compute engine for containers that works with both Amazon Elastic Container Service (ECS) and Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS)....

What are the best hosting companies in the world?
My client is a startup and he needs a world-class website on some of the best hosting providers in the world. Page loads should be fast, we can't have servers not responding and going slow, support must be great (like a Live Chat or similar SOS system), and everything else like custom apps should be supported. Any "Unl...
Most of the "best" hosting companies (in terms of the quality of support) tend to be single-technology (eg Engine Yard are Rails-focused -- so if you've got a Rails site, you'll get good support from them, but a Tomcat site you'd host somewhere else). For me, I want someone who will provide a solid, stable network, and...

Nested set model: retrieve sub-tree containing nodes that match condition

Report non-unique ids?
Since a webpage should only have unique id attributes , does that mean you should report that as a bug on an otherwise functional page? For one, it surely makes automation more difficult, but for some that might not be a sufficient reason to change the id-s.
The id global attribute defines an identifier (ID) which must be unique in the whole document. Its purpose is to identify the element when linking (using a fragment identifier), scripting, or styling (with CSS). https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Global_attributes/id So as per standard, ID should be uniq...

SQLServer - how to move tables between instances?
I'm not very familiar with SQLServer and, thus, I inadvertently created a database in a fashion I thought it would work. In SQL Management Studio, I right clicked the instance and created a [CODE] database, so all my tables are [CODE] instead of [CODE] . Should I expect performance issues? Also, is there a somewhat saf...
First of all if your object names are [CODE] you probably created a schema not a new database. Schemas are the containers for objects such as tables. Databases contain schemas. So the naming format is [CODE] . Assuming that is correct it's very easy to change the schema that owns your tables using [CODE] . [CODE] This ...

To be able to share across a network, you need an IP. Simply put.

For practical data access reasons, you should use the structure from your first option, but instead keep all versions of your tracked column values including the current version in your history table.

One way to do this is have one interface with the three methods, and implement it in a few abstract classes (these would be the base classes for the full implementations).

Take a step back. If there is something in common between the two API's then they are discussing the same thing.

Security risk of JIRA standalone installation running JRE version 1.6.0_26 vs 1.6.0_29 (latest)
Atlassian recently introduced a standalone installer that installs JIRA, along with its own JRE. Unfortunately the JRE Atlassian bundles with this installer is 1.6.0_26, whereas the current version of the JRE is 1.6.0_29. This is potentially concerning given there were vulnerabilities in _26 that were fixed in the subs...
According to an official risk matrix from Oracle the security risk is quite high. Of course your environment is isolated from an external attacker but security is never too much. I guess Atlassian just did not have enough time to replace the bundled JRE yet, maybe it was not a top priority task in their release plan.

I am encountering deadlocks while trying to update multiple rows (a batch) using INSERT..ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE. Does MySQL lock all the rows in one batch or does it lock only the row it is updating at a point of time?
This would depend on the Storage Engine. [CODE] : Table-level locks are performed. Consequently, all rows are locked. [CODE] : Row-level locks are employed. Since InnoDB is transactional, all rows are locked implcitly. Those locks would be visible when you run [CODE] . If you want to manually lock those rows beforehand...
