    Query by Example (QBE) is a database query language for relational databases. It was devised by Moshé M. Zloof at IBM Research during the mid-1970s, in parallel to the development of SQL . [ 1 ] It is the first graphical query language, using visual tables where the user would enter commands, example elements and conditions.

    SQL refers to Structured Query Language, a kind of language used to access, update and manipulate database. In SQL, ROLLBACK is a command that causes all data changes since the last START TRANSACTION or BEGIN to be discarded by the relational database management systems (RDBMS), so that the state of the data is "rolled back" to the way it was before those changes were made.

    In 1998 Chris Date and Hugh Darwen proposed a language called Tutorial D intended for use in teaching relational database theory, and its query language also draws on ISBL's ideas. [10] Rel is an implementation of Tutorial D. Bmg is an implementation of relational algebra in Ruby which closely follows the principles of Tutorial D and The Third ...

    Microsoft Access: A table named DUAL may be created and the single-row constraint enforced via ADO (Table-less UNION query in MS Access) Microsoft SQL Server: SQL Server does not require a dummy table. Queries like 'select 1 + 1' can be run without a "from" clause/table name. [5] MySQL allows DUAL to be specified as a table in queries that do ...

  7. Comparison of relational database management systems - Wikipedia

    A true fully (database, schema, and table) qualified query is exemplified as such: SELECT * FROM database. schema. table. Both a schema and a database can be used to isolate one table, "foo", from another like-named table "foo". The following is pseudo code: SELECT * FROM database1. foo vs. SELECT * FROM database2. foo (no explicit schema ...

  8. Schema crosswalk - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schema_crosswalk

    Crosswalk tables are often employed within or in parallel to enterprise systems, especially when multiple systems are interfaced or when the system includes legacy system data. In the context of Interfaces, they function as an internal extract, transform, load (ETL) mechanism. For example, this is a metadata crosswalk from MARC standards to ...

  9. Shadow table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shadow_table

    The database can send the whole transactions table. The database can send a shadow table that only contains the transactions involving the user that requested his/her transaction history. The second option is usually more favorable because it saves bandwidth and processing power on the user's end. It also keeps others' transaction data secure.
