Postgres New JSON data type Support of Static and Dynamic schemas

Now we can create static and dynamic both kind of schema relational table so a new kind of heterogeneous data structure can be created in Relational tables.  Relational database that is much more concerned with standards compliance and extensible than with giving you freedom over how you store data. It uses both dynamic and static schema and allows you to use it for relational data and normalized form storage.

Static Relation data structure in Postgres

CREATE TABLE Project (  id serial PRIMARY KEY,  name varchar,  mgr integer,  is_active boolean );
CREATE TABLE Task(  id serial PRIMARY KEY, name varchar, status boolean, project_id integer,
CONSTRAINT idx_project_id FOREIGN KEY (project_id) REFERENCES project (id) );

Dynamic Relation data structure in Postgres

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS project ( id serial PRIMARY KEY,  name varchar,  mgr integer,  tasks jsonb , is_active boolean );

Keeping JSON Document inside Postgres Table

INSERT INTO project VALUES (1,'YoungDBA',2,'{"id": 1, "name": "test1","status": "Done","date": "2018-01-18", "is_active": "True"}'); 
INSERT INTO project VALUES (2,'YoungDBA',2,'{"id": 1, "name": "test1","status": "Done","date": "2018-01-18", "is_active": "True"}'); 
INSERT INTO project VALUES (3,'YoungDBA',2,'{"id": 1, "name": "test1","status": "Done","date": "2018-01-18", "is_active": "True"}');


Now aggregation from static and dynamic data is easier than than documentdb 

SELECT visitor_id, SUM(CAST(properties->>'amount' AS integer)) AS total
FROM events WHERE CAST(properties->>'amount' AS integer) > 0 GROUP BY visitor_id;

SELECT browser->>'name' AS browser, count(browser)
FROM events GROUP BY browser->>'name';

SELECT AVG(CAST(browser->'resolution'->>'x' AS integer)) AS width,
AVG(CAST(browser->'resolution'->>'y' AS integer)) AS height FROM events;

How to encrypt and decrypt Table data in postgres

For encrypting and decrypting , we must use the bytea data type on the column which we implement. Bcoz bytea will use the pgcrypto method by default. However, you will need to create the pgcrypto extension to enable these functions as they are not pre-defined in PostgreSQL/PPAS. Example CREATE EXTENSION pgcrypto; CREATE TABLE userinfo (username varchar(20), password bytea); >>    Inserting the data in an encrypted format INSERT INTO userinfo VALUES(' suman ',encrypt('111222','password','aes')); select * from userinfo ; >>    Retrieving the data as decrypted format SELECT decrypt(password,decode('password','escape'::text),'aes'::text) FROM userinfo; Thanks for reading Plz dont forget to like Facebook Page.. https://www.facebook.com/pages/Sql-DBAcoin/523110684456757

SQL71562: external references are not supported when creating a package from this platform

Last week I got this error from one of developer who was trying to deploy his project from Testing server to SQL Azure QA server. He was using “Deploy Database to SQL Azure” option from SSMS Tool-Task option. After connecting to SQL Azure portal when operation started to deployment below errors occurs. Validation of the schema model for data package failed. Error SQL71562: Error validating element xx.xxx.xx:function .dbo.xxx has an unresolved refrence to object xx.dbo.xxxx external refrences are not supported when creating a package from this platform . Reason: The reason of the this error was; some functions of project was dependent on master database and only single database was being deploy to SQL Azure. DACFx must block Export when object definitions (views, procedures, etc.) contain external references, as Azure SQL Database does not allow cross-database external references So, this error was coming. Solution : I suggested him to create those function to locally
