  2. Query optimization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Query_optimization

    Cardinality estimation in turn depends on estimates of the selection factor of predicates in the query. Traditionally, database systems estimate selectivities through fairly detailed statistics on the distribution of values in each column, such as histograms. This technique works well for estimation of selectivities of individual predicates.

  3. Cardinality (SQL statements) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardinality_(SQL_statements)

    High-cardinality refers to columns with values that are very uncommon or unique. High-cardinality column values are typically identification numbers, email addresses, or user names. An example of a data table column with high-cardinality would be a USERS table with a column named USER_ID. This column would contain unique values of 1-n. Each ...

  4. Count-distinct problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Count-distinct_problem

    In computer science, the count-distinct problem [1] (also known in applied mathematics as the cardinality estimation problem) is the problem of finding the number of distinct elements in a data stream with repeated elements. This is a well-known problem with numerous applications.

  5. Nested set model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nested_set_model

    The Nested Set model is appropriate where the tree element and one or two attributes are the only data, but is a poor choice when more complex relational data exists for the elements in the tree. Given an arbitrary starting depth for a category of 'Vehicles' and a child of 'Cars' with a child of 'Mercedes', a foreign key table relationship must ...

  6. One-to-one (data model) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One-to-one_(data_model)

    A country has only one capital city, and a capital city is the capital of only one country. (Not valid for some countries).. In systems analysis, a one-to-one relationship is a type of cardinality that refers to the relationship between two entities (see also entity–relationship model) A and B in which one element of A may only be linked to one element of B, and vice versa.

  7. HyperLogLog - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HyperLogLog

    The HyperLogLog has three main operations: add to add a new element to the set, count to obtain the cardinality of the set and merge to obtain the union of two sets. Some derived operations can be computed using the inclusion–exclusion principle like the cardinality of the intersection or the cardinality of the difference between two HyperLogLogs combining the merge and count operations.

  8. Hint (SQL) - Wikipedia

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

    Different database engines use different approaches in implementing hints. MySQL uses its own extension to the SQL standard, where a table name may be followed by USE INDEX, FORCE INDEX or IGNORE INDEX keywords. [1] Oracle implements hints by using specially-crafted comments in the query that begin with a + symbol, thus not affecting SQL ...

  9. Cardinality (data modeling) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardinality_(data_modeling)

    Within data modelling, cardinality is the numerical relationship between rows of one table and rows in another. Common cardinalities include one-to-one , one-to-many , and many-to-many . Cardinality can be used to define data models as well as analyze entities within datasets.
