Subj:   The use of ID Columns
 
From:   Kambhoji, Naveen Ram Prasanna



Hello All,

How far is it beneficial to define an Identity Column as PI in DWH Applications. I heard that joins to ID columns almost always require row distributions. Why is it so?

Also what if I want to add more constant values for a multivalued compressed column.


Thanks,

Prasanna.K
