I am referring to change the table used by the model in the controller, not loading a different model. Sure you can use the var $uses to setup the table in the codes. But to swap the table used by model temporary, use setSource

That is not the way you should be doing things imo. if you want to use a different table $uses is the way to go.

If you want to use a different model for one method in your controller, loadModel() is what you want.

Having the code randomly switching db’s will not be fun when you need to debug in a few weeks/months time.

Comment on System Development with a Design Firm? by Jerry

Juz sharing my view.

Actually usually when company outsourced their system development to the design firms, it could be built from the trust of marketing websites developed from the cookie cutter method sites. Dazzled and charmed by the delivery of such flashy sites its easy to gain the impression that system development is probably easier to deliver that all the fancy sprites and animation. However most design firms probably have more resources delicated to the design aspect of a website than the system development aspect.

Companies should adapt framework like Information Technology Infrastructure Library (ITIL) to minimise the risk IT system failure. With proper framework to governance the points of failure the delivery of IT projects are more likely to succeed.

With the rise of mobile apps in popularity and mobility, its time to improve the IT infastruture and gvernence framework to ride on the mobile waves to empower the users.

Comment on Video Sharing Website Part 2 : Converting the uploaded video to FLV by givemecake

Yes it definitely will affect the server performance. That's why it is best to process it on another machine in batch. See http://givemecake.dev-work.com/2009/06/video-sharing-website-part-1-introduction-to-video-steaming/ for the network diagram. Ongoing maintenance is needed to ensure that the server's performance is not compromised. You will need to add on clustering and more servers to the network.

Wow… this is cool. But will it kill the server performance?
