  2. Truncate (SQL) - Wikipedia

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

    In SQL, the TRUNCATE TABLE statement is a Data Definition Language (DDL) operation that deletes all rows of a table without causing a triggered action. [1] The result of this operation quickly removes all data from a table , typically bypassing a number of integrity enforcing mechanisms.

  3. Delete (SQL) - Wikipedia

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

    Deleting all rows from a table can be very time-consuming. Some DBMS [clarification needed] offer a TRUNCATE TABLE command that works a lot quicker, as it only alters metadata and typically does not spend time enforcing constraints or firing triggers. DELETE only deletes the rows. For deleting a table entirely the DROP command can be used.

  4. Data definition language - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_definition_language

    The DROP statement is distinct from the DELETE and TRUNCATE statements, in that DELETE and TRUNCATE do not remove the table itself. For example, a DELETE statement might delete some (or all) data from a table while leaving the table itself in the database, whereas a DROP statement removes the entire table from the database.

  5. Hierarchical and recursive queries in SQL - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hierarchical_and_recursive...

    A common table expression, or CTE, (in SQL) is a temporary named result set, derived from a simple query and defined within the execution scope of a SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, or DELETE statement. CTEs can be thought of as alternatives to derived tables ( subquery ), views , and inline user-defined functions.

  6. Merge (SQL) - Wikipedia

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

    Some database implementations adopted the term upsert (a portmanteau of update and insert) to a database statement, or combination of statements, that inserts a record to a table in a database if the record does not exist or, if the record already exists, updates the existing record. This synonym is used in PostgreSQL (v9.5+) [2] and SQLite (v3 ...

  7. Database trigger - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database_trigger

    Firebird supports multiple row-level, BEFORE or AFTER, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE (or any combination of thereof) triggers per table, where they are always "in addition to" the default table changes, and the order of the triggers relative to each other can be specified where it would otherwise be ambiguous (POSITION clause.) Triggers may also exist ...

  8. Select (SQL) - Wikipedia

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

    According to PostgreSQL v.9 documentation, an SQL window function "performs a calculation across a set of table rows that are somehow related to the current row", in a way similar to aggregate functions. [7] The name recalls signal processing window functions. A window function call always contains an OVER clause.
