How SQL SERVER Database Diagram is important in feeding a dynamic website?
Hello,
How SQL SERVER Database Diagram is important in feeding a dynamic website?
I'm a newbie in MS SQL, coming from Access. Succeded in setting up 2 dbs for 2 different servers, imported my Access data fine and running apparently smoothly for a few weeks.
My sites are Coldfusion powered.
I created my 1st storedprocedure and seems ok too. So far so good.
Just researching and wondering what important setups in my dbs I should make to improve performance and/or to minimize bad incidents.
Was wondering whether making a Database Diagram and create the links between the keys would improve something or just don't any better as I double check that I always have a primary key in every table and the key linking is done in the query at the script level on the webpages.
Welcome any consideration from you guys.
Tks.
Ernest

The Database diagram in SQL Server is the logical equivalent of the Relationships page in Access. The Daigram wizard in SQL Server will establish the PK-FK relationships, and allow you to turn on Cascade Update and Delete, if you so desire. However, most of that type of integrity management is better handled with Triggers in SQL Server, so that you, as the DBA have more direct control over the events.
