Ask HN: Literature on Ultra-Wide Tables?
You don&#x27;t really say why you want to use ultra wide tables? I can tell you that they are quite painful to look at as a user, microsoft dynamics crm which I use has some tables with many hundreds of columns and it&#x27;s painful to access and performance is bad in certain scenarios.<p>Are you writing huge amounts of data?<p>How are you reading the data?<p>I&#x27;m assuming many of the columns will be empty for most records?
