Then they argue about the answers. Modules may be voted on ahead of time by participants but could include: - Are NULLs evil? - How many are too many joins? - Who gets the final say in design decisions? - How long is too long for a naming standard? - Are GUIDs helpful? - Is refactoring a help or a hindrance? - Are all surrogate keys helpful? - Are data models anti-agile? - Is a database software or infrastructure or both? - Which is more important: performance or data quality? - Is normalization the end of the world? - Are naming standards just for the wicked? - Are repeating columns that bad? - How much security should be in the database rather than the application? - A faux NULLs dangerous? Bring your votes, your debates, and your opinions.
