  2. Full table scan - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Full_table_scan

    This means that a full table scan should be used when it is the fastest and cannot use a different access path. Several full table scan examples are as follows. [3] No index The optimizer must use a full table scan since no index exists. Small number of rows The cost of full table scan is less than index range scan due to small table.

  3. Range query (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Range_query_(computer_science)

    Range sum queries may be answered in constant time and linear space by pre-computing an array p of same length as the input such that for every index i, the element p i is the sum of the first i elements of a. Any query may then be computed as follows: ⁡ (,) =.

  4. Data orientation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_orientation

    Data orientation refers to how tabular data is represented in a linear memory model such as in-disk or in-memory.The two most common representations are column-oriented (columnar format) and row-oriented (row format). [1] [2] The choice of data orientation is a trade-off and an architectural decision in databases, query engines, and numerical ...

  5. Database index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database_index

    The non-clustered index tree contains the index keys in sorted order, with the leaf level of the index containing the pointer to the record (page and the row number in the data page in page-organized engines; row offset in file-organized engines). In a non-clustered index, The physical order of the rows is not the same as the index order.

  6. 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 ...

  7. Index notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Index_notation

    A vector treated as an array of numbers by writing as a row vector or column vector (whichever is used depends on convenience or context): = (), = Index notation allows indication of the elements of the array by simply writing a i, where the index i is known to run from 1 to n, because of n-dimensions. [1]

  8. Trino (SQL query engine) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trino_(SQL_query_engine)

    Trino is an open-source distributed SQL query engine designed to query large data sets distributed over one or more heterogeneous data sources. [1] Trino can query data lakes that contain a variety of file formats such as simple row-oriented CSV and JSON data files to more performant open column-oriented data file formats like ORC or Parquet [2] [3] residing on different storage systems like ...

  9. Zero-based numbering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero-based_numbering

    Zero-based numbering is a way of numbering in which the initial element of a sequence is assigned the index 0, rather than the index 1 as is typical in everyday non-mathematical or non-programming circumstances.
