Hi all,

I'm just curious, I have three projects at work, websites written in
PHP, two of which are online and is about to go. I'd like to switch
them to Cake (of course), and my biggest concern is the database..

Databases for all three projects are "clones" of an oracle db from a
real-time / mission-critical system and cannot be changed. They are
mostly read-only and updated via custom php script (cron job) on
regular basis. Table names are all uppercase, in two out of three, the
field names are also uppercase, there are no 'id' fields as each table
has a custom primary key.

Finally, my question is: I know I can make a single model work with a
single table ($useTable, $primaryKey etc..) but is it possible for the
whole site to work properly, when we consider all the custom relations
and primary keys, queries..? Are there any cock-ups I might run into?
Will there be any performance issues (in each database, there is a
huge-ass "transaction" table which is known to grow fast, we have 7
digit numbers rowcount..)?

Any advice?

Thanks in advance,
dr. H.
