  2. Slowly changing dimension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slowly_changing_dimension

    The Type 4 method is usually referred to as using "history tables", where one table keeps the current data, and an additional table is used to keep a record of some or all changes. Both the surrogate keys are referenced in the fact table to enhance query performance.

  3. Data cleansing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_cleansing

    Data cleansing or data cleaning is the process of identifying and correcting (or removing) corrupt, inaccurate, or irrelevant records from a dataset, table, or database.It involves detecting incomplete, incorrect, or inaccurate parts of the data and then replacing, modifying, or deleting the affected data.

  4. Help:Introduction to tables with Wiki Markup/All - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Introduction_to...

    To add an extra row into a table, you'll need to insert an extra row break and the same number of new cells as are in the other rows. The easiest way to do this in practice, is to duplicate an existing row by copying and pasting the markup. It's then just a matter of editing the cell contents.

  5. Row- and column-major order - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Row-_and_column-major_order

    Support for multi-dimensional arrays may also be provided by external libraries, which may even support arbitrary orderings, where each dimension has a stride value, and row-major or column-major are just two possible resulting interpretations. Row-major order is the default in NumPy [19] (for Python). Column-major order is the default in Eigen ...

  6. Data deduplication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_deduplication

    One method for deduplicating data relies on the use of cryptographic hash functions to identify duplicate segments of data. If two different pieces of information generate the same hash value, this is known as a collision. The probability of a collision depends mainly on the hash length (see birthday attack).

  7. Database index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database_index

    The non-clustered index tree contains the index keys in sorted order, with the leaf level of the index containing the pointer to the record (page and the row number in the data page in page-organized engines; row offset in file-organized engines). In a non-clustered index, The physical order of the rows is not the same as the index order.

  8. Table (database) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Table_(database)

    In a database, a table is a collection of related data organized in table format; consisting of columns and rows.. In relational databases, and flat file databases, a table is a set of data elements (values) using a model of vertical columns (identifiable by name) and horizontal rows, the cell being the unit where a row and column intersect. [1]

  9. Database normalization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database_normalization

    In situations where the number of unique values of a column is far less than the number of rows in the table, column-oriented storage allow significant savings in space through data compression. Columnar storage also allows fast execution of range queries (e.g., show all records where a particular column is between X and Y, or less than X.)
