Hi, I am working on the design of tables for installation statistics. I have a doubt here:
Suppose there is a port P. Now for number of installations of P, there are many definitions I am having in my mind: 1. Number of users currently having P in active_ports/ inactive_ports. [ACTIVE INSTALLATIONS] 2. Number of users for which P ever appeared in active/ inactive ports, no matter if it is there at this point of time or not. [TOTAL INSTALLATIONS- counted only once per user] 3. If any particular user installs P two times, then count that as two different installations. [TOTAL INSTALLATIONS] Which one would make more sense? Maybe we can have two fields- "Total Installations" (definition 2) and "Active Installations" (definition 1)? Or just one? Thank You Arjun >
