好的，所以有一点背景......作为一名程序员优先，数据库设计经验有限，我犯了几个新手错误，即统一代码查找表和另一个表上的 EAV 实现。我目前正在尝试将它们改造成更多的传统 RDBMS，但我想绝对确定这次我做对了。

我的大问题表是一个包含 150 列左右的大表，其中包含我们必须向州报告的客户数据。这些数据中的大部分使用特定于状态的查找值，因此根据我当前的设计计划，我最终将获得 75-100 个 FK 到不同的查找表。

现在我们需要对这些数据进行报告，所以我需要能够轻松地引用每个属性的代码值和描述。我能想到的唯一选择是创建两个单独的视图（或者可能是一个大型视图），这将为我整理数据。创建和维护这似乎是一个相当乏味的过程，尤其是考虑到收集的数据可能会发生变化。如果这是标准做法，我可以做腿部工作，但我很好奇是否有更好的方法我只是不知道。

如果您最关心报告，您可能希望构建一个“报告”或“分析”数据库（通常使用 ETL 或Extact/Transform/Load工具执行）。这些数据库通常是选择性地去规范化的——例如，您'Male'在报告表中没有对“性别”代码表的 fk 引用。实际程度根据需要变化，并且可能应该通过视图呈现，直到出现特定的性能级别问题。

但是，对于日常工作，例如您的“实时”数据是什么样的，您需要一种标准化的方法。
我假设Chart表格有类似visitedOn,collectingCaregiverId等的东西。任何重要的东西，（几乎）总是收集的，并且“静态”，都应该放在这个表格中。例如，种族在访问过程中不太可能发生变化（并且可以说应该是静态患者记录的一部分）。
任何有点“稀疏”但经常收集的东西可能需要放在“相关”表中。就像是：

Education_Status
=================
chart_id  -- fk reference to chart.id
school  -- fk reference to attribute-specific code table
program  -- see above
grade_point_average  -- DECIMAL(3, 2)

... 等等。
任何完全可选且很少收集的东西都可能最终出现在 EAV 中。请注意，基于“区域”，这些设置可能不止一种；此外，这些也应尽可能“编码”： 

Unusual_Symptom_Type
======================
id  -- autogen
name  -- varchar(20) (eg - 'Turning Blue', 'Allergic to Oxygen', etc)

Unusual_Symptom
====================
chart_id  -- fk reference to chart.id
unusual_symptom_type_id  -- fk reference to unusual_symptom_type.id
note -- varchar(20) (eg - 'Afternoon Sky', 'Combusts', etc)

当然，您必须重新组装它以进行报告。这是“事务性”数据库固有的“弱点”——数据质量通常不错，更新也很简单，但将它们以“可读”格式组合在一起可能会很痛苦。尽可能构建视图，将相关区域连接在一起。

我认为视图，可能是较小的视图，是你能做的最好的事情。多少？根据您的情况和要求。您可以为每个报告或报告组创建一个视图。这一切都取决于...这是我的想法和将做的。仅供参考 - 我不是 DBA，而是开发人员。
