I've seen them alot, worked with them rarely. I was just hoping to open a discussion with people working with experienced DBA's regarding today's standing on the use of composite primary keys.
I ask, as I have been given a schema to work with, and will be using a framework for development. CakePHP doesn't support composites at all, and I read alot of troubles in other frameworks to work around them. (to the point of hand rolling queries) Call me lazy, but it just seems to me that in most cases, a singular PK can be found for pretty much any table. But are they are must in certain situations?
