We are excited to announce a significant enhancement to our scheduling feature based on your valuable feedback! At Zenduty, we understand the importance of flexibility and efficiency in managing on-call schedules and ensuring seamless incident response. Previously, only team managers had the capability to edit schedules and add overrides. This meant that non-manager team members had to reach out to their managers to request override coverage, potentially delaying critical adjustments.

Little did he know, his customer wasn't exactly thrilled. In fact, the customer was so displeased that he decided to write Ea-nāṣir a strongly worded letter. Yes, you heard that right! A literal stone tablet of dissatisfaction, complaining about the shoddy grade of copper and some other delivery mishap.

Traditional database design prioritizes data integrity through normalization. However, for read-heavy workloads, normalized data structures can lead to complex queries and slower performance. Denormalization offers an alternative approach to optimize query execution and improve efficiency. A study concluded that denormalization can improve query performance when implemented with a thorough understanding of application requirements.
