  2. Snowflake schema - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snowflake_schema

    The snowflake schema is in the same family as the star schema logical model. In fact, the star schema is considered a special case of the snowflake schema. The snowflake schema provides some advantages over the star schema in certain situations, including: Some OLAP multidimensional database modeling tools are optimized for snowflake schemas. [3]

  3. List of tz database time zones - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tz_database_time_zones

    Link - An alternative name (alias) which links to a canonical zone. Link † - A standard Link (as above). The dagger symbol (†) signifies that the zone was canonical in a previous version of the database. Historical data for such zones is still preserved in the source code, but it is not included when compiling the database with standard ...

  4. Shard (database architecture) - Wikipedia

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

    A database shard, or simply a shard, is a horizontal partition of data in a database or search engine. Each shard may be held on a separate database server instance, to spread load. Some data within a database remains present in all shards, [a] but some appear only in a single shard. Each shard (or server) acts as the single source for this ...

  5. Partition (database) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partition_(database)

    Database partitioning is normally done for manageability, performance or availability [2] reasons, or for load balancing. It is popular in distributed database management systems, where each partition may be spread over multiple nodes, with users at the node performing local transactions on the partition. This increases performance for sites ...

  6. PACELC theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PACELC_theorem

    The tradeoff between availability, consistency and latency, as described by the PACELC theorem. In database theory, the PACELC theorem is an extension to the CAP theorem.It states that in case of network partitioning (P) in a distributed computer system, one has to choose between availability (A) and consistency (C) (as per the CAP theorem), but else (E), even when the system is running ...

  7. Shared-nothing architecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shared-nothing_architecture

    In databases, a term for the part of a database on a single node is a shard. A SN system typically partitions its data among many nodes. A SN system typically partitions its data among many nodes. A refinement is to replicate commonly used but infrequently modified data across many nodes, allowing more requests to be resolved on a single node.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_schema

    Consider a database of sales, perhaps from a store chain, classified by date, store and product. The image of the schema to the right is a star schema version of the sample schema provided in the snowflake schema article. Fact_Sales is the fact table and there are three dimension tables Dim_Date, Dim_Store and Dim_Product.
