  2. Database index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database_index

    A database index is a data structure that improves the speed of data retrieval operations on a database table at the cost of additional writes and storage space to maintain the index data structure. Indexes are used to quickly locate data without having to search every row in a database table every time said table is accessed.

  3. Block Range Index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block_Range_Index

    A Block Range Index or BRIN is a database indexing technique. They are intended to improve performance with extremely large [i] tables.. BRIN indexes provide similar benefits to horizontal partitioning or sharding but without needing to explicitly declare partitions.

  4. Query optimization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Query_optimization

    The set of query plans examined is formed by examining the possible access paths (e.g., primary index access, secondary index access, full file scan) and various relational table join techniques (e.g., merge join, hash join, product join). The search space can become quite large depending on the complexity of the SQL query. There are two types ...

  5. List of in-memory databases - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_in-memory_databases

    In SQL Server 2012, an in-memory technology called xVelocity column-store indexes targeted for data-warehouse workloads. Mimer SQL: Mimer Information Technology SQL, ODBC, JDBC, ADO.NET, Embedded SQL, C, C++, Python Proprietary Mimer SQL is a general purpose relational database server that can be configured to run fully in-memory.

  6. Full table scan - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Full_table_scan

    When table is less than 2 percent of database block buffer, the full scan table is quicker. Cons: Full table scan occurs when there is no index or index is not being used by SQL. And the result of full scan table is usually slower that index table scan. The situation is that: the larger the table, the slower of the data returns.

  7. Partial index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partial_index

    This allows the index to remain small, even though the table may be rather large, and have extreme selectivity. Suppose you have a transaction table where entries start out with STATUS = 'A' (active), and then may pass through other statuses ('P' for pending, 'W' for "being worked on") before reaching a final status, 'F', at which point it is ...

  8. Bitmap index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitmap_index

    A bitmap index is a special kind of database index that uses bitmaps.. Bitmap indexes have traditionally been considered to work well for low-cardinality columns, which have a modest number of distinct values, either absolutely, or relative to the number of records that contain the data.

  9. Reverse index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reverse_index

    In database management systems, a reverse key index strategy reverses the key value before entering it in the index. [1] E.g., the value 24538 becomes 83542 in the index. Reversing the key value is particularly useful for indexing data such as sequence numbers , where each new key value is greater than the prior value, i.e., values ...
