  2. Surrogate key - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surrogate_key

    A surrogate key is frequently a sequential number (e.g. a Sybase or SQL Server "identity column", a PostgreSQL or Informix serial, an Oracle or SQL Server SEQUENCE or a column defined with AUTO_INCREMENT in MySQL). Some databases provide UUID/GUID as a possible data type for surrogate keys (e.g. PostgreSQL UUID [3] or SQL Server ...

  3. Primary key - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primary_key

    In the relational model of databases, a primary key is a designated attribute that can reliably identify and distinguish between each individual record in a table.The database creator can choose an existing unique attribute or combination of attributes from the table (a natural key) to act as its primary key, or create a new attribute containing a unique ID that exists solely for this purpose ...

  4. Identity column - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Identity_column

    It is a common misconception that an identity column will enforce uniqueness; however, this is not the case. If you want to enforce uniqueness on the column you must include the appropriate constraint too. In Microsoft SQL Server you have options for both the seed (starting value) and the increment. By default the seed and increment are both 1.

  5. Referential integrity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Referential_integrity

    In Microsoft SQL Server the term DRI also applies to the assigning of permissions to users on a database object. Giving DRI permission to a database user allows them to add foreign key constraints on a table. [7]

  6. List of programming languages by type - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_programming...

    Basically, object code for the language's interpreter needs to be linked into the executable. Source code fragments for the embedded language can then be passed to an evaluation function as strings. Application control languages can be implemented this way, if the source code is input by the user. Languages with small interpreters are preferred.

  7. Database schema - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database_schema

    The formal definition of a database schema is a set of formulas (sentences) called integrity constraints imposed on a database. [citation needed] These integrity constraints ensure compatibility between parts of the schema. All constraints are expressible in the same language.

  8. Attribute-based access control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attribute-based_access_control

    The concept of ABAC can be applied at any level of the technology stack and an enterprise infrastructure. For example, ABAC can be used at the firewall, server, application, database, and data layer. The use of attributes bring additional context to evaluate the legitimacy of any request for access and inform the decision to grant or deny access.

  9. Naming convention (programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naming_convention...

    In Python, if a name is intended to be "private", it is prefixed by one or two underscores. Private variables are enforced in Python only by convention. Names can also be suffixed with an underscore to prevent conflict with Python keywords. Prefixing with double underscores changes behaviour in classes with regard to name mangling.
