  2. Database index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database_index

    To process this statement without an index the database software must look at the last_name column on every row in the table (this is known as a full table scan). With an index the database simply follows the index data structure (typically a B-tree) until the Smith entry has been found; this is much less computationally expensive than a full ...

  3. Query plan - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Query_plan

    This plan table will return the cost and time for executing a query. Oracle offers two optimization approaches: CBO or Cost Based Optimization; RBO or Rule Based Optimization; RBO is slowly being deprecated. For CBO to be used, all the tables referenced by the query must be analyzed. To analyze a table, a DBA can launch code from the DBMS_STATS ...

  4. Query optimization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Query_optimization

    First, all ways to access each relation in the query are computed. Every relation in the query can be accessed via a sequential scan. If there is an index on a relation that can be used to answer a predicate in the query, an index scan can also be used. For each relation, the optimizer records the cheapest way to scan the relation, as well as ...

  5. Full table scan - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Full_table_scan

    Full table scan occurs when there is no index or index is not being used by SQL. And the result of full scan table is usually slower that index table scan. The situation is that: the larger the table, the slower of the data returns. Unnecessary full-table scan will lead to a huge amount of unnecessary I/O with a process burden on the entire ...

  6. Extensible Storage Engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extensible_Storage_Engine

    Indexes are defined to persist interesting orders of data, and allow both sequential access to records in index order, and direct access to records by index column values. Clustered indexes in ESE must also be primary, meaning that the index key must be unique. Clustered and non-clustered indexes are represented using B+ trees. If an insert or ...

  7. Determining the number of clusters in a data set - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Determining_the_number_of...

    The average silhouette of the data is another useful criterion for assessing the natural number of clusters. The silhouette of a data instance is a measure of how closely it is matched to data within its cluster and how loosely it is matched to data of the neighboring cluster, i.e., the cluster whose average distance from the datum is lowest.

    The following tables compare general and technical information for a number of available database administration tools. Please see individual product articles for further information. This article is neither all-inclusive nor necessarily up to date. Systems listed on a light purple background are no longer in active development.

  9. Materialized view - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Materialized_view

    This enables much more efficient access, at the cost of extra storage and of some data being potentially out-of-date. Materialized views find use especially in data warehousing scenarios, where frequent queries of the actual base tables can be expensive. [citation needed] In a materialized view, indexes can be built on any column. In contrast ...
