  2. Trino (SQL query engine) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trino_(SQL_query_engine)

    Trino is an open-source distributed SQL query engine designed to query large data sets distributed over one or more heterogeneous data sources. [1] Trino can query data lakes that contain a variety of file formats such as simple row-oriented CSV and JSON data files to more performant open column-oriented data file formats like ORC or Parquet [2] [3] residing on different storage systems like ...

  3. PostgreSQL - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PostgreSQL

    Tables can be set to inherit their characteristics from a parent table. Data in child tables will appear to exist in the parent tables, unless data is selected from the parent table using the ONLY keyword, i.e. SELECT * FROM ONLY parent_table;. Adding a column in the parent table will cause that column to appear in the child table.

  4. Select (SQL) - Wikipedia

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

    A SELECT statement retrieves zero or more rows from one or more database tables or database views. In most applications, SELECT is the most commonly used data manipulation language (DML) command. As SQL is a declarative programming language, SELECT queries specify a result set, but do not specify how to calculate it.

  5. Cursor (databases) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cursor_(databases)

    UPDATE table_name SET ... WHERE CURRENT OF cursor_name DELETE FROM table_name WHERE CURRENT OF cursor_name. The cursor must operate on an updatable result set in order to successfully execute a positioned update or delete statement. Otherwise, the DBMS would not know how to apply the data changes to the underlying tables referred to in the cursor.

  6. Comma-separated values - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comma-separated_values

    Most database programs can export data as CSV. Most spreadsheet programs can read CSV data, allowing CSV to be used as an intermediate format when transferring data from a database to a spreadsheet. CSV is also used for storing data. Common data science tools such as Pandas include the option to export data to CSV for long-term storage. [10]

  7. Hash function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hash_function

    The values are usually used to index a fixed-size table called a hash table. Use of a hash function to index a hash table is called hashing or scatter-storage addressing. Hash functions and their associated hash tables are used in data storage and retrieval applications to access data in a small and nearly constant time per retrieval.

  8. Pointer (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pointer_(computer_programming)

    As an analogy, a page number in a book's index could be considered a pointer to the corresponding page; dereferencing such a pointer would be done by flipping to the page with the given page number and reading the text found on that page. The actual format and content of a pointer variable is dependent on the underlying computer architecture.

  9. Page table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Page_table

    At its core is a fixed-size table with the number of rows equal to the number of frames in memory. If there are 4,000 frames, the inverted page table has 4,000 rows. For each row there is an entry for the virtual page number (VPN), the physical page number (not the physical address), some other data and a means for creating a collision chain ...
