Question Managing SQL Data

Hello,

I am currently working on a large project that will be developed using MS SQL. I have been considering two options when it comes the creation of the database. The first option is to create a sepereate table for each of my clients. The tables would be labeled by their Id number then the tables reqular name. Fore example : 781_Users.

The other option is to create a different database for each of the clients.

I just need the data to be seperated between clients, it cant mix. Please just give me your opinion on which option you would consider if you were operating a large project.

Thanks in advance!

for a "large" project, I don't think you could go wrong w/using a seperate DB for each client...I think it will give you more flexibility and room to grow.

yeah i would create a db for each user. customize the model db and that will create the same db/structure for each client everytime you added someone new.

funner than what i'm workin on.
