I'm starting work on a program which is perhaps most naturally described as a batch of calculations on database tables, and will be executed once a month. All input is in Oracle database tables, and all output will be to Oracle database tables. The program should stay maintainable for many years to come. It seems straight-forward to imp...
We have 50+ Java batch processes that run at different times of the day. They run on a Solaris box, and are started via cron. Currently, the only way we only know if they succeed or fail is by an email generated at the end of each batch process. We have a support team that monitors these emails. Recently, we've had issues with emails...

I have a table with 40 million rows. I want to pick up about 2 million at a time and "process" them. Why? Cos processing processing 10million+ rows degrades performance, and often times out. (I need this to work independant of data size, so i cant just keep increasing the time out limit.) Also, I'm using SQL Server. ...

Most notably is it possible to return the error code of a command in a pipe? For example, this one-line batch script foo.exe returns the error code of foo. But this one: foo.exe | tee output.txt a...

I have created an AuthZ authorization file, added our developers to group...
