Which one is preferable : multiple tables or single large table in a MySQL or Oracle Database?
i require for web based applications
I prefer multiple tables......it solves the complexity which gets build when project becomes large
Good point on large projects. A single table can get real messy on larger projects. Data duplication can easily grow in that scenario.
When i started my proj. i went for a large single table concept... later when the required no. of features increased i was forced to change my whole database structure to multiple tables (i am a student, no experience) .
It became more flexible.
It depends on the situation. If you are creating a table that is going to be used at an input for dimensions and facts for a cube, then I would go with one flat table in order to get the best performance. If on the other hand you are developing app, then it is better to create multiple tables to match your objects in the view and controller.
It depends. If you've studied relational databases, they talk about normalization. When you normalize your database, you typically end up with more than one table. One of the things normalization does is reduce space usage by removing data duplication. If space isn't an issue, and you have a good way of handling data duplication, then a single table would do. A single table would also tend to simplify your SQL queries since you don't have to do any table joins.

Are tables still a good thing for SEO? I find them difficult to read, especially if they are lists in three columns. They are also very difficult to edit, if it is an alphabetical listing. It throws everything out of whack to add or remove an item in the list. Editors keep taking...

As we know, the table capsule isn't working. What do you do for substitution for it? Thank you.
