“A Database Christmas Carol”
\n(Sing to the tune of “The Twelve Days of Christmas”)
\nBy Mary Elizabeth McNeely, 2009<\/p>\n
On the first day of Christmas,
\nMy true love sent to me
\nAn index that’s a b-tree.<\/p>\n
…<\/p>\n
On the twelfth day of Christmas,
\nMy true love sent to me
\nTwelve cache hit ratios,
\nEleven time zone patches,
\nTen consultants a-sleeping,
\nNine sysops dancing,
\nEight scripts a-spooling,
\nSeven users a-squawking,
\nA six-digit salary demand,
\nFive function calls,
\nFour TKPROFs,
\nThree corrupt blocks,
\nTwo raw devices,
\nAnd an index that’s a b-tree!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
