  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. Select (SQL) - Wikipedia

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

    SELECT list is the list of columns or SQL expressions to be returned by the query. This is approximately the relational algebra projection operation. AS optionally provides an alias for each column or expression in the SELECT list. This is the relational algebra rename operation. FROM specifies from which table to get the data. [3]

  5. SQL - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SQL

    SQL was initially developed at IBM by Donald D. Chamberlin and Raymond F. Boyce after learning about the relational model from Edgar F. Codd [12] in the early 1970s. [13] This version, initially called SEQUEL (Structured English Query Language), was designed to manipulate and retrieve data stored in IBM's original quasirelational database management system, System R, which a group at IBM San ...

    Column: Attribute or field: A labeled element of a tuple, e.g. "Address" or "Date of birth" Table: Relation or Base relvar: A set of tuples sharing the same attributes; a set of columns and rows View or result set: Derived relvar: Any set of tuples; a data report from the RDBMS in response to a query

  7. Rename (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rename_(computing)

    The C standard library provides a function called rename which does this action. [1] In POSIX, which is extended from the C standard, the rename function will fail if the old and new names are on different mounted file systems. [2] In SQL, renames are performed by using the CHANGE specification in ALTER TABLE statements.

  8. Star schema - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_schema

    The star schema is an important special case of the snowflake schema, and is more effective for handling simpler queries. [ 2 ] The star schema gets its name from the physical model's [ 3 ] resemblance to a star shape with a fact table at its center and the dimension tables surrounding it representing the star's points.

  9. Register renaming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Register_renaming

    The rename file must have a read port for every input of every instruction renamed every cycle, and a write port for every output of every instruction renamed every cycle. Because the size of a register file generally grows as the square of the number of ports, the rename file is usually physically large and consumes significant power.
