  2. Snowflake schema - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snowflake_schema

    The snowflake schema is in the same family as the star schema logical model. In fact, the star schema is considered a special case of the snowflake schema. The snowflake schema provides some advantages over the star schema in certain situations, including: Some OLAP multidimensional database modeling tools are optimized for snowflake schemas. [3]

  3. List of file signatures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_file_signatures

    Microsoft compressed file in Quantum format, used prior to Windows XP. File can be decompressed using Extract.exe or Expand.exe distributed with earlier versions of Windows. After compression, the last character of the original filename extension is replaced with an underscore, e.g. ‘Setup.exe’ becomes ‘Setup.ex_’. 46 4C 49 46: FLIF: 0 flif

  4. Shard (database architecture) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shard_(database_architecture)

    Horizontal partitioning splits one or more tables by row, usually within a single instance of a schema and a database server. It may offer an advantage by reducing index size (and thus search effort) provided that there is some obvious, robust, implicit way to identify in which partition a particular row will be found, without first needing to search the index, e.g., the classic example of the ...

  5. Star schema - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_schema

    Consider a database of sales, perhaps from a store chain, classified by date, store and product. The image of the schema to the right is a star schema version of the sample schema provided in the snowflake schema article. Fact_Sales is the fact table and there are three dimension tables Dim_Date, Dim_Store and Dim_Product.

  6. Partition (database) - Wikipedia

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

    Database partitioning is normally done for manageability, performance or availability [2] reasons, or for load balancing. It is popular in distributed database management systems, where each partition may be spread over multiple nodes, with users at the node performing local transactions on the partition. This increases performance for sites ...

  7. PACELC theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PACELC_theorem

    The tradeoff between availability, consistency and latency, as described by the PACELC theorem. In database theory, the PACELC theorem is an extension to the CAP theorem.It states that in case of network partitioning (P) in a distributed computer system, one has to choose between availability (A) and consistency (C) (as per the CAP theorem), but else (E), even when the system is running ...

  8. MyISAM - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MyISAM

    The files have names that begin with the table name and have an extension to indicate the file type. MySQL uses a .frm file to store the definition of the table, but this file is not a part of the MyISAM engine; instead it is a part of the server. The data file has a .MYD (MYData) extension. The index file has a .MYI (MYIndex) extension.

  9. Snowflake ID - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snowflake_ID

    Twitter uses snowflake IDs for tweets, direct messages, users, lists, and all other objects available over the API. [7] Discord also uses snowflakes, with their epoch set to the first second of the year 2015. [3] Instagram uses a modified version of the format, with 41 bits for a timestamp, 13 bits for a shard ID, and 10 bits for a sequence ...
