addly Database Identity

Text
Project Overview
The need for an identity for it is, yes, questionable. But not for me.

Anything wort investing time in - and building a custom database, no small ask - surely deserves treating as a ‘proper’ design project.

And anyway, it’s good fun and good practice when actual gigs like this are as rare as rocking-horse’s here.
My contribution to this
So, addly (my naming idea) is based on the characterisation of the ubiquitous hashtag, which in the past (and certainly still, in places) is the stand-in symbol for ‘number’.

And as databases are all in the numbers, seemed like a gift.Likely as not the project will never see the light of day (given my experience of own-client ambitions.

As someone once remarked, their reach exceeds their grasp.) So rather than leave this ‘resting’ in a cloud-server older until 2024, I’m going to risk jumping the shark and airing it here.

The worst that can happen? Might actually get used.

This is, admittedly, a self-generated project. The identity part that is. There is a project under development to create a new database product, but as a company project the question is ‘will it ever see the light of day?’
