In situations where the number of unique values of a column is far less than the number of rows in the table, column-oriented storage allow significant savings in space through data compression. Columnar storage also allows fast execution of range queries (e.g., show all records where a particular column is between X and Y, or less than X.)
It may now be desirable to add a numeric identifier to each row in the "Electric toothbrush models" table to ensure it remains in 1NF, or, the table may be left as is, allowing each unique combination of values in each row to be usable as a primary key, thus allowing the columns {Manufacturer, Model} in this table to be used as the candidate ...
A nullable attribute would be in violation of condition 4, which requires every column to contain exactly one value from its column's domain. This aspect of condition 4 is controversial. It marks an important departure from Codd's later vision of the relational model, [12] which made explicit provision for nulls. [13]
Denormalization is a strategy used on a previously-normalized database to increase performance. In computing, denormalization is the process of trying to improve the read performance of a database, at the expense of losing some write performance, by adding redundant copies of data or by grouping data.
Data Analysis Expressions (DAX) is the native formula and query language for Microsoft PowerPivot, Power BI Desktop and SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS) Tabular models. DAX includes some of the functions that are used in Excel formulas with additional functions that are designed to work with relational data and perform dynamic aggregation.
Chester A. Arthur: Turtle Steak. Though today it’s illegal to eat turtles in many parts of the world, that wasn’t stopping Chester Arthur back in the 1880s.
Text normalization is the process of transforming text into a single canonical form that it might not have had before. Normalizing text before storing or processing it allows for separation of concerns, since input is guaranteed to be consistent before operations are performed on it. Text normalization requires being aware of what type of text ...
