All,
I notice a lot of you have background in other databases apart from Teradata. I am designing a data load process (not for Teradata) and 2
approaches have come up to do RI processing. These assume the fact that Hard RI will NOT be enforced in the database
1. Do the RI checking in SQL by doing joins to parent tables
2. Do the RI checking on flat files (based on Metadata) and then do NOT do any RI checking on the database and just do plain
loads.
Any suggestion / help is appreciated!
