MSSQL教程之CREATE TABLE C SQL Command

先说DDL的分类。有一类DDL，是不需要重建表的，比如加非聚簇索引。这类操作其实不会丢数据，也是在原表上直接操作，对于我们“以恢复数据为目的”的闪回，是可以先忽略的。另外一类，则是会影响到表数据的操作。commandCREATETABLECSQLCommand

Memory所有数据置于内存的存储引擎，拥有极高的插入，更新和查询效率。但是会占用和数据量成正比的内存空间。并且其内容会在Mysql重新启动时丢失

XML字段类型更好的解决了XML数据的操作。XQuery确实不错，但是个人对其没好感。（CSDN的开发者应该是相当的熟了！）

从项目平台的选择上讲，我们关心的，应该是一款产品能不能满足任务需求，而不是网上怎么说。

是否碎片会引发效率问题？这都是需要进一步探讨的东西。varbinary(max)代替image也让SQLServer的字段类型更加简洁统一。

对一张百万级别的表建游标，同时又没有什么过滤条件，取得游标效率是如果直接SQL查询百万条数据；如果再对每条记录做处理，耗时将更长。

相信各位对数据库和怎么样学习数据库都有一些经验和看法，也会有人走了一些弯路总结出自己的经验来，希望大家能把各自的看法和经验拿出来分享，给别人一份帮助，给自己一份快乐

但是随着数据量的增大，这种成本差距会逐渐减小，趋于相等。（500万数量级只相差10%左右）

然后最好有实践机会，能够把实践到的和实践结合起来，其实理论思考是个非常困扰和痛苦的事情

如果，某一版本可以提供强大的并发响应，但是没有Oracle的相应版本稳定，或者价格较贵，那么，它就是不适合的。

习惯敲命令行的朋友可能会爽一些。但是功能有限。适合机器跑不动SQLServerManagementStudio的朋友使用。
