Television intervention of our president!

A reporter from BFM Marseille came to our premises yesterday to film Michel Payan during a report on Data.
2 issues were addressed:
– What is the date?
– What innovations are made in data?

The program “Perspectives d’Entreprises” will be broadcast on Tuesday February 21, 2023 at 8:10 p.m., then every day at 11:15 a.m. until February 28.

Congratulations to Michel for his participation and a big thank you to BFM Business for the interest shown in our company.

Can’t wait to see the result on BFM Marseille (channel 30)!

As the end of the year approaches, we would like to thank you, dear users, for your trust and loyalty!

dbSQWare has just celebrated its 15th anniversary and has therefore been installed by some of our historical customers.

THANK YOU for your interest, your involvement and your solicitation!

A statistic (on a table, a column / a set of columns or on an index) provides information on:
– the table (number of lines, average size of a line, number of blocks/page, density),
– the distribution of values ​​for the column(s) (number of distinct values, number of duplicates, existence of null values, histogram of distribution of values),
– the composition of the index (depth, number of blocks, cluster ratio).

These statistics are used by the database optimizer to study the different execution plans that can be used for a query.
The optimizer (based on costs / CBO) chooses the best execution plan (least expensive) from the data calculated from these statistics on, in particular, the number of rows and blocks of data to be shuffled at each stage of these plans (access strategies).

Statistics are essential for the proper calculation of query execution plans. It is therefore essential that they are up to date to take into account changes to the data and therefore to the indexes, columns and tables.
Thanks to update statistics, the optimizer has reliable data to choose the best performing execution plan to serve data to applications.

Initially implemented exclusively in the Paris region, our software dbSQWare has since made its way.
It’s thanks to our users: their trust, loyalty and high standards.
The software is constantly evolving to meet customer needs.
This year, 6 patches have completed and enriched the 2022 version of dbSQWare.
The 7th will be released in a few days while waiting for the 2023 version…

A big thank you to the city of Chelles for its trust and recognition.
Good event to all participants!

The 31st edition of COTER-NUMERIQUE (the 1st for dbSQWare) has come to an end.

A big thank you to all the decision-makers who came to meet our team during this show.
Discussing the management of database engines is always a pleasure for Séverine Payan and Michel Payan.

Congratulations to Antoine Trillard and his entire team for the organization and the quality of the event.
Looking forward to the next edition, in 2023, in Deauville.

Thank you also to our colleagues and partners for their great sympathy.

– “The environment copy, what is it for?”

The environment copy allows you to duplicate an environment and thus have 2 identical environments (same structure, same tables, same data) on 2 different servers.

The interest is to have, for example, a development environment identical to that of production (in the case where the prod environment is copied in dev) and to provide developers with a working base reliable and up-to-date before they start coding (Caution, it may be necessary to anonymize the data!).
In other cases, the environment copy can make it possible to put a test environment into production, if it has successfully passed all the validation stages, or to set up a DRP (Disaster Recovery Plan) on D-1.

Finally, if the duplication is done through backups, this makes it possible to validate their viability.
