Schemas?

When does using schemas make sense? Is it more effective or is it just to make a
database more manageable?
Regards,

They are just a logical hierarchy that allows you to organize your
databases in more or less manageable ways. There is no performance or
other physical benefit.

TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command
(send "unregister YourEmailAddres sHere" to ma*******@postg resql.org)

Hello All. We have several XML schemas to describe common component document parts. We then create new XML schemas as necessary that use "xsd:import schemaLocation=whateverLocation.." to include the common type definitions from 1 or more of the component XML schemas rather than just explicitly adding the common definitions in every XML schema we create. This works great from a definition and validation point of view, but I

Whenever I create a temporary table, with something like CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE temptable1 AS SELECT * FROM paid.ad_hoc_query; New schemas appear, with names like "pg_temp_1". I guess the appearance of these schemas with "temp" in the name indicates that they are "temporary" schemas and related to the temporary table creation, but the schemas persist even after the end of the session in which the temporary table was created.

I'm looking for some input on a configuration I'm implementing. The long term goal is to providing hosting for companies and organizations with a basic/generic set of applications that use PostgreSQL.

When I use the schema collection to apply many schemas to one XML instance document, I get an error if I do not qualify every element with the appropriate namespace. Both the W3C site and this article (http://www.xfront.com/ZeroOneOrManyNamespaces.html) imply that I can submit an XML instance without having to qualify each element. How do I accomplish this while still using .Net & the

Hi, I have a lot of schemas to load into a schema collection. I load them in by reading each one into a XMLTextReader from disk and add them into a schema collection. I have a couple of issues to contend with. 1. The targetnamespace on all the schemas (except ones which define generic types) are the same. 2. The DefaultNamespace is the same as the Targetnamespace (I think this should be ok) 3. Some of the schemas import other sschemas...

I have two machines between which I exchange dumps a lot. On the first (Windows/cygwin), pgsql was set up with "Administrator" as the main superuser - who owns all schemas in template0 and template1. On the second machine (Linux), "postgres" is pgsql's main superuser. On whatever machines I do "createdb", the owner of the schemas in template0/1 is copied over to the schemas in the new database, even when specifying the owner parameter...

I've been spending the last few days converting many databases into a single schema and have completed the process, but now I'm at somewhat of an impasse as to the best way to proceed forward....

I am designing wsdl that uses multiple schemas. I can do this in two ways: 1) use multiple schema imports in one wsdl or 2) use multiple schema imports in to one common schema and then import a single common schema in the wsdl. The issue is complicated because I have several wsdls with several common and unique schemas. As an example serviceA_Ports.wsdl imports a commonServiceTypes.Xml, commonFaultTypes.xml, and serviceA.xml ...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
