  2. Relational algebra - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relational_algebra

    The right outer join behaves almost identically to the left outer join, but the roles of the tables are switched. The right outer join of relations R and S is written as R S. [e] The result of the right outer join is the set of all combinations of tuples in R and S that are equal on their common attribute names, in addition to tuples in S that ...

  3. Join (SQL) - Wikipedia

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

    A join clause in the Structured Query Language (SQL) combines columns from one or more tables into a new table. The operation corresponds to a join operation in relational algebra. Informally, a join stitches two tables and puts on the same row records with matching fields : INNER, LEFT OUTER, RIGHT OUTER, FULL OUTER and CROSS.

  4. Relational database - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relational_database

    A relational database (RDB[1]) is a database based on the relational model of data, as proposed by E. F. Codd in 1970. [2] A database management system used to maintain relational databases is a relational database management system (RDBMS). Many relational database systems are equipped with the option of using SQL (Structured Query Language ...

  5. Associative entity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Associative_entity

    An associative entity is a term used in relational and entity–relationship theory. A relational database requires the implementation of a base relation (or base table) to resolve many-to-many relationships. A base relation representing this kind of entity is called, informally, an associative table. An associative entity (using Chen notation)

  6. Star schema - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_schema

    Star schema. In computing, the star schema or star model is the simplest style of data mart schema and is the approach most widely used to develop data warehouses and dimensional data marts. [1] The star schema consists of one or more fact tables referencing any number of dimension tables. The star schema is an important special case of the ...

  7. Query optimization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Query_optimization

    The performance of a query plan is determined largely by the order in which the tables are joined. For example, when joining 3 tables A, B, C of size 10 rows, 10,000 rows, and 1,000,000 rows, respectively, a query plan that joins B and C first can take several orders-of-magnitude more time to execute than one that joins A and C first.

  8. Cosmos DB - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmos_DB

    Azure Cosmos DB. Azure Cosmos DB is a globally distributed, multi-model database service offered by Microsoft. It is designed to provide high availability, scalability, and low-latency access to data for modern applications. Unlike traditional relational databases, Cosmos DB is a NoSQL (meaning "Not only SQL", rather than "zero SQL") and vector ...

  9. Hash join - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hash_join

    The hash join is an example of a join algorithm and is used in the implementation of a relational database management system.All variants of hash join algorithms involve building hash tables from the tuples of one or both of the joined relations, and subsequently probing those tables so that only tuples with the same hash code need to be compared for equality in equijoins.
