  2. Database index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database_index

    In Microsoft SQL Server, the leaf node of the clustered index corresponds to the actual data, not simply a pointer to data that resides elsewhere, as is the case with a non-clustered index. [5] Each relation can have a single clustered index and many unclustered indices. [6]

  3. 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 ...

  4. Unique key - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unique_key

    On some RDBMS a primary key generates a clustered index by default. Unique constraint. A unique constraint can be defined on columns that allow nulls, in which case rows that include nulls may not actually be unique across the set of columns defined by the constraint. Each table can have multiple unique constraints.

  7. Shard (database architecture) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shard_(database_architecture)

    Horizontal partitioning splits one or more tables by row, usually within a single instance of a schema and a database server. It may offer an advantage by reducing index size (and thus search effort) provided that there is some obvious, robust, implicit way to identify in which partition a particular row will be found, without first needing to search the index, e.g., the classic example of the ...

  8. Database engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database_engine

    The simplest form of index is a sorted list of values that can be searched using a binary search with an adjacent reference to the location of the entry, analogous to the index in the back of a book. The same data can have multiple indexes (an employee database could be indexed by last name and hire date). Indexes affect performance, but not ...

    Note (4): Used for InMemory ColumnStore index, temporary hash index for hash join, Non/Cluster & fill factor. Note (5): InnoDB automatically generates adaptive hash index [125] entries as needed. Note (6): Can be implemented using Function-based Indexes in Oracle 8i and higher, but the function needs to be used in the sql for the index to be used.
