I'm having an argument with an incumbent self-taught programmer that
it is OK to use null foreign keys in database design.
My take is the whole point of a foreign key is that it's not supposed
to be optional, it's very definition is it's a necessary link to the
parent table and part of the definition. If it's optional it shouldn't
be part of the definition of a table and should be in a linking table
instead.
Comments?

I understand the number of foreign keys allowed is restricted by the DBMS I
use.
In a general relational schema design perspective how many foreign keys a
table shall have?
If I have large number of foreign keys what anamolies it will lead to?
Is this crucial to identify all the foriegn key relationships for a table?

I've got a problem which I think may be a bug in Postgres, but I wonder if
I'm missing something. Two tables, A & B have foreign key relations to each
other. A 3rd table C, inherits from A. A stored procedure updates a row in
C, adds a row each in B & C. I get an integrity violation. All the foreign
keys are deferrable, and the stored procedure is called from within a
transaction with constraints deferred. (And the foreign keys do refer to...

I have to synchronize 2 databases hourly but am having difficulty maintaining foreign key relations. These tables use auto-increment columns as primary keys, with child records in other tables related with foreign keys. I can't change the way the local software uses primary or foreign keys as it is hardcoded in the local app. (microsoft retail management system)..(however the web-remote app is easily customized). I am using CDB synchronizer to...

Kinda new to SQL, using SQL Server 2005.
I have some foreign keys in a couple of tables. I need to drop these
tables, but can't since I'll get the error:
Msg 3726,
Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Could not drop object 'Client' because it is referenced by a FOREIGN
KEY constraint.

I have a dataset with Customers, Orders, and Items tables.
It has datarelations set between Customers-Orders and Orders-Items
It has foreignkeyconstraints with update/delete rules set to cascade
for Orders & Items.
The dataset is filled with Customers and their related Orders and
their related Items.
What is the most efficient way to create a second dataset that is a
subset of the main dataset, but only has data for Customer_id = "1"

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:
g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp
Here is the code in...
