• Opinions requested: DAY_DIMENSION - PK should be numeric key or date? If numeric, sequence or YYYYMMDD? #
• @neilkod Kimball style star schema. Large fact, smaller dimensions. If we use date, how do we represent an unknown date in the fact table? in reply to neilkod #
• @neilkod Well, with a surrogate it would point to a null date record. with a “smart” pk, it’s ugly. I don’t actually like the yyyymmdd. in reply to neilkod #
• @neilkod I prefer to use surrogate. But that make partitioning the fact problematic. in reply to neilkod #

• @fuadar Thanks. I like the number solution also but am concerned about partition pruning. in reply to fuadar #
• @piontekdd I sure didn’t see that coming. I think someone should have bought sun long ago. Now, meh. Still, a strong combination. in reply to piontekdd #
• I guess if IBM buys sun, that’s the death of Solaris, Sparc and MySQL? Actually, IBM might set it free. And Java - real OSS? #
• @evilnick I don’t think it would be good. There’s a good market out there for MySQL. in reply to evilnick #
• @surachart I’m sure Sparc would be gone. They would probably just let opensolaris linger and fade. MySQL, I’m not sure. in reply to surachart #
• Sun didn’t do a very good job with MySQL. It was no win though. Hands on = evil corp. Hands off = abandonment. #
• @botchagalupe Ah, I remember Rexx. Always liked it. Remember ADR-Roscoe (eventually CA-Roscoe)? in reply to botchagalupe #
• @serge_a_storms I don’t think they would. They would need to make plenty of changes just to stop the money bleed. in reply to serge_a_storms #
• RT @botchagalupe IBM and SUN short list of challenges based on some this mornings tweets. Feel free to add more - http://tr.im/hvtl #
• @serge_a_storms I hope so. I used my first sparc back in the early 90s (with SunOS). I have a fondness for them. in reply to serge_a_storms #

• @serge_a_storms Well, I’ve got JDE and that’s working but I haven’t use eclipse. I figured if Jdev does it, at least I used that previously, in reply to serge_a_storms #
• @joaooliveira I meant just fire up an AMI and install Oracle yourself. Works fine for dev/test. Need the official AMI for prod, though. in reply to joaooliveira #

• @joaooliveira If you’re going for production, I guess you’ll have to wait for Oracle to push them. For dev/test, oracle runs fine on centos in reply to joaooliveira #
