So we stumbled upon the white paper...
WHY WE ARE MOVING OUR DATABASES TO THE UTF8 CHARACTER SET By David F. Pennington, GlaxoSmithKline
This white paper raises a potential issue that DBAs might need to be aware of. Basically, it has to do with certain characters not storing correctly in the database because of different character sets being used between the database, client and how the user enters data into the application.
Has this issue been raised on the list before?
Basically, were wondering how other DBAs/sites are handling/approaching this issue.
Many TIA!!
Chris
I believe the below link will get you to the white paper on the IOUG website.
