Some of my favourite public data sets
Readers of a certain age and RDBMS background will probably remember northwind
, or HR
, or OE
databases - or quite possibly not just remember them but still be using them. Hardcoded sample data is fine, and it’s great for repeatable tutorials and examples - but it’s boring as heck if you want to build an example with something that isn’t using the same data set for the 100th time.
