  2. 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 ...

    Partitioning options on a table in MySQL in the environment of the Adminer tool. A partition is a division of a logical database or its constituent elements into distinct independent parts.

  6. Database virtualization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database_Virtualization

    The act of partitioning data stores as a database grows has been in use for several decades. There are two primary ways that data has been partitioned inside legacy data management systems: Shared-data databases: an architecture that assumes all database cluster nodes share a single partition.

  7. 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 ...

  8. Window function (SQL) - Wikipedia

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

    In SQL, a window function or analytic function [1] is a function which uses values from one or multiple rows to return a value for each row. (This contrasts with an aggregate function, which returns a single value for multiple rows.) Window functions have an OVER clause; any function without an OVER clause is not a window function, but rather ...

  9. Database schema - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database_schema

    Visual representation often may also be exported as a production-ready source code made in DB-compatible languages like SQL. The database schema is the structure of a database described in a formal language supported typically by a relational database management system (RDBMS).
