    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schema_migration

    Schema migration tools can be said to solve versioning problems for database schemas just as version control systems solve versioning problems for source code. In practice, many schema migration tools actually rely on a textual representation of schema changes (such as files containing SQL statements) such that the version history of schema ...

  7. Database normalization - Wikipedia

    To conform to 2NF and remove duplicates, every non-candidate-key attribute must depend on the whole candidate key, not just part of it. To normalize this table, make {Title} a (simple) candidate key (the primary key) so that every non-candidate-key attribute depends on the whole candidate key, and remove Price into a separate table so that its ...

  9. Truncate (SQL) - Wikipedia

    In SQL, the TRUNCATE TABLE statement is a data manipulation language (DML) [1] operation that deletes all rows of a table without causing a triggered action. The result of this operation quickly removes all data from a table, typically bypassing a number of integrity enforcing mechanisms.
