  2. Comparison of relational database management systems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_relational...

    This limit applies to number of characters in names, rows per table, columns per table, and characters per CHAR/VARCHAR. Note (9): Despite the lack of a date datatype, SQLite does include date and time functions, [83] which work for timestamps between 24 November 4714 B.C. and 1 November 5352.

  3. Condition (SQL) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Condition_(SQL)

    In addition to basic equality and inequality conditions, SQL allows for more complex conditional logic through constructs such as CASE, COALESCE, and NULLIF.The CASE expression, for example, enables SQL to perform conditional branching within queries, providing a mechanism to return different values based on evaluated conditions.

  4. Query rewriting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Query_Rewriting

    Query rewriting is a typically automatic transformation that takes a set of database tables, views, and/or queries, usually indices, often gathered data and query statistics, and other metadata, and yields a set of different queries, which produce the same results but execute with better performance (for example, faster, or with lower memory use). [1]

  5. Join (SQL) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Join_(SQL)

    An existing natural join might then "naturally" use the new column for comparisons, making comparisons/matches using different criteria (from different columns) than before. Thus an existing query could produce different results, even though the data in the tables have not been changed, but only augmented. The use of column names to ...

  6. Select (SQL) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Select_(SQL)

    SELECT list is the list of columns or SQL expressions to be returned by the query. This is approximately the relational algebra projection operation. AS optionally provides an alias for each column or expression in the SELECT list. This is the relational algebra rename operation. FROM specifies from which table to get the data. [3]

  7. SQL syntax - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SQL_syntax

    A query includes a list of columns to include in the final result, normally immediately following the SELECT keyword. An asterisk ("*") can be used to specify that the query should return all columns of the queried tables. SELECT is the most complex statement in SQL, with optional keywords and clauses that include:

  8. Database model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database_model

    The flat (or table) model consists of a single, two-dimensional array of data elements, where all members of a given column are assumed to be similar values, and all members of a row are assumed to be related to one another. For instance, columns for name and password that might be used as a part of a system security database.

  9. Materialized view - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Materialized_view

    Whenever a query or an update addresses an ordinary view's virtual table, the DBMS converts these into queries or updates against the underlying base tables. A materialized view takes a different approach: the query result is cached as a concrete ("materialized") table (rather than a view as such) that may be updated from the original base ...
