Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Would you allow this?
My understanding was that Cognos could only "select" from the database,
nothing else. Ran into the same situation when I used to work for the
State of Arizona. We set up a "temporary" database with some data that
came from production. Basically just an export to import kind of thing.
Oh, to settle your ideas about "bad" sql. Yes, they are notorious for
sending off sql that is in dyer need of being tuned. Again, just my
experience.
Take Care,

It was Cognos. I'm sure this tool is just as good at generating bad SQL as
our
current reporting tool.
They don't need a big database to prove that.

Lisa,
Your employer sounds like a complete moron. If I was you, I would start
looking for another job. One of these days (maybe now), the database is
going to be hosed and YOU will get the blame for it happening.

How many of you would allow a vendor to come in and do a demo on a
PRODUCTION
DATABASE?
I am being overridden. I am being told to allow it, it's their database
and
if
they hose it (who knows what this thing is going to do?) it's their
problem.
What? It's just a reporting tool, but STILL! I am concerned about it
starting
runaway queries and eating up resources reserved for CUSTOMERS.
Can you feel my headache all the way from Minneapolis.... I should just
take
the afternoon off.
Lisa
