Spectacular graphics that meets the key figures for Google

Spectacular graphics that meets the key figures for Google

 

To get an idea of the volume of business that moves Google infografia nothing better than that prepared in pingdom, which collected on the same graph one timeline with key milestones of the company, impressive numbers on the form, increase in revenues , figures on company employees, and the most significant data on other successful products such as Android, YouTube, Blogger, Gmail, Chrome, Orkut or Analytics.

A good source of inspiration for anyone eager to create a scorecard where we could see these evolve dynamically as so well chosen indicators.

Surely more than one person has clicked on an indicator in the chart to see if anything more;)..

Oracle10g: Change the character set of the database

It may happen that after you install or configure a new Oracle database we realize that the character set chosen during installation is not correct. What we may happen in cases like this is to delete the database and reconfigure it or worse ...But you do not. We can change the character set stopping the database, looking up strictly by changing the settings and restart the database. Howto:
 

- First we connect to the database 

$ sqlplus sys/pwd@prod as sysdba
 

- We stop the database 

SQL>SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE;

 

- We raise strictly * 

SQL>STARTUP MOUNT;
SQL>ALTER SYSTEM ENABLE RESTRICTED SESSION;
SQL>ALTER SYSTEM SET JOB_QUEUE_PROCESSES=0;
SQL>ALTER DATABASE OPEN;

- Change the character map 

SQL>ALTER DATABASE CHARACTER SET <new characters map>;

- Restart the database and yata

Twitter will migrate from MySQL to Cassandra DB

Cassandra is an open source database distributed, is one of the noteworthy projects of the Apache Software Foundation and appears to be hitting hard. By being distributed enables high availability, fault tolerance and, above all, a highly scalable without loss of performance.

And were using companies that handle large amounts of data such as Rackspace, Digg, or Facebook, and the list is expanding.

The latest news, coming from a blog interview with Ryan King MyNoSQL is that Twitter is considering migrating their MySQL server clusters Cassandra DB.
 

This is a product presentation, which can be found in the same web Cassandra Project 

Update SQL Server table statistics dynamically throughout a database

In Oracle databases there is a table that allows to list all the tables in the database (table 'dba_tables') and we can use this 'dba_tables' to create maintenance scripts dynamically.  In SQL Server we can create also scripts of tables maintenace by querying the table [dataBase].dbo.sysobjects.

In the example below we use a T-SQL script to update statistics for all tables in a SQL Server database by querying dynamically the data dictionary (using the table dbo.sysobjects). This T-SQL code can be encapsulated in a stored procedure or in a job to be executed by the SQL Server Agent to automatically keep statistics updated on all tables of the dbo scheme in a SQL Server database.
