Example table:
Ticket
- id
- tenant_id
- foo
TicketItem
- id
- tenant_id
- ticket_id
- bar
Assuming that id
and tenant_id
on each table make up composite primary keys, and that ticket_id
is a foreign key to Ticket
will this setup protect me from a circumstance where a TicketItem
has tenant_id=1
and ticket_id=5
where the Ticket
with id=5
has tenant_id=2
? In simpler words, would the database allow me to link rows from 2 tables - each with different tenant_id
- together, ruining my data, or does it protect me from this?
Also, does the above example seem like a "good" use of a composite primary key?
