  In such an extrem case, one might consider to use base   tables that are denormalized and contain NULLs for the   attributes that do not apply. Denormalization is usually an   anti-pattern, but might be appropriate at times. But this   might have its own performance issues.

  Another anti-pattern are �dynamical attributes�. I.e.,

Product Property Value

1211 Weight 200 kg
1211 Height 10 m
1212 Size 200131 Bytes

  But in extreme cases patterns that usually are   anti-patterns might have to be considered. Received on Tue Mar 15 2016 - 15:27:46 CET
