Think `INT` is always enough? Still storing dates as `VARCHAR`? Let’s fix that.
Join us for a deep dive into the wild world of data types—where performance, precision, and portability all hang in the balance. We’ll explore how different databases (including SQL Server and Snowflake) implement data types, what actually happens under the hood, and why that seemingly small choice you made in table design might be silently wrecking your indexes, your storage, or your sanity.
You’ll walk away with practical guidance, battle stories, and a fresh look at what “right” really means when it comes to typing your data.
Whether you're a schema sculptor or a query whisperer, this is for you.
