Cake's not worth the candle...

Crack a nut with a sledgehammer

Garbage in, garbage out
(If a computer system or database is built badly, then the results will be bad).

White elephant
(A white elephant is an expensive burden; something that costs far too much money to run, like the Millennium Dome in the UK).
