| I am developing an application for the Cellular market. The nature of the market means constant changes to the network and those to the solution I am to develop. The changs are usually addition and removel of attributes but sometimes also addition of classes of object. The changes occur every 3-6 months and of course the solution need to be up-to-date... Using a traditional data model (where each class of object has a table with a colunmn for each attribute) may result in constant schema changes. On the other hand a model like the EAV/CR (Entity Attribute Value), which is flexible, raises performance and integrity issues... Any suggestions? Data to look for? |

| Check into using XML datatypes on SQL Server 2005 instead of EAV schemas. |
