It would be very interesting to know - in some detail -
what kind of data gives difficulties in putting stuff
from a RDBMS into a MV database.
This maybe somewhat awkward in this newsgroup, because some
will be just waiting to say: See? You *can* express proposition_set(x)
in a RDBMS, and you *can't* in MV, therefore MV is better.
More is not a priori better.
But I trust you can stand that reaction. Could you give some examples? Received on Thu Jun 10 2004 - 20:30:45 CEST
