反向观点:过度痴迷于正常化。

大多数SQL/ rbdb系统提供了许多非常有用的特性(事务、复制)，即使对于非标准化的数据也是如此。磁盘空间很便宜，有时操作/过滤/搜索获取的数据比编写1NF模式更简单(更容易的代码，更快的开发时间)，并处理其中的所有麻烦(复杂的连接，讨厌的子选择等)。

我发现过度标准化的系统通常是不成熟的优化，特别是在开发的早期阶段。

(再想想……http://writeonly.wordpress.com/2008/12/05/simple-object-db-using-json-and-python-sqlite/)

我见过太多人死死抓着IN(…)，却完全忘记了EXISTS(存在)。有关一个好例子，请参见Symfony Propel ORM。

编写查询的开发人员没有很好地了解SQL应用程序(包括单个查询和多用户系统)的快慢。这包括对以下方面的无知:

physical I/O minimization strategies, given that most queries' bottleneck is I/O not CPU perf impact of different kinds of physical storage access (e.g. lots of sequential I/O will be faster than lots of small random I/O, although less so if your physical storage is an SSD!) how to hand-tune a query if the DBMS produces a poor query plan how to diagnose poor database performance, how to "debug" a slow query, and how to read a query plan (or EXPLAIN, depending on your DBMS of choice) locking strategies to optimize throughput and avoid deadlocks in multi-user applications importance of batching and other tricks to handle processing of data sets table and index design to best balance space and performance (e.g. covering indexes, keeping indexes small where possible, reducing data types to minimum size needed, etc.)

我最不喜欢的是

Using spaces when creating tables, sprocs etc. I'm fine with CamelCase or under_scores and singular or plurals and UPPERCASE or lowercase but having to refer to a table or column [with spaces], especially if [ it is oddly spaced] (yes, I've run into this) really irritates me. Denormalized data. A table doesn't have to be perfectly normalized, but when I run into a table of employees that has information about their current evaluation score or their primary anything, it tells me that I will probably need to make a separate table at some point and then try to keep them synced. I will normalize the data first and then if I see a place where denormalization helps, I'll consider it. Overuse of either views or cursors. Views have a purpose, but when each table is wrapped in a view it's too much. I've had to use cursors a few times, but generally you can use other mechanisms for this. Access. Can a program be an anti-pattern? We have SQL Server at my work, but a number of people use access due to it's availabilty, "ease of use" and "friendliness" to non-technical users. There is too much here to go into, but if you've been in a similar environment, you know.

同一查询中的相同子查询。

也许这不是一个反模式，但它惹恼了我，当某些数据库的DBA(好吧，我在这里说的是Oracle)用Oracle风格和代码约定编写SQL Server代码，当它运行如此糟糕时抱怨。受够了游标Oracle的人!SQL是基于设置的。
