  2. Truncate (SQL) - Wikipedia

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

    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.

  3. Character large object - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Character_large_object

    It is a collection of character data in a database management system, usually stored in a separate location that is referenced in the table itself. Oracle and IBM Db2 provide a construct explicitly named CLOB, [1] [2] and the majority of other database systems support some form of the concept, often labeled as text, memo or long character fields.

  4. Lazy deletion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lazy_deletion

    The problem with this scheme is that as the number of delete/insert operations increases, the cost of a successful search increases. To improve this, when an element is searched and found in the table, the element is relocated to the first location marked for deletion that was probed during the search.

  5. Delete (SQL) - Wikipedia

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

    DELETE requires a shared table lock; Triggers fire; DELETE can be used in the case of: database link; DELETE returns the number of records deleted; Transaction log - DELETE needs to read records, check constraints, update block, update indexes, and generate redo / undo. All of this takes time, hence it takes time much longer than with TRUNCATE

  6. 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 ...

  8. Spreadsheet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spreadsheet

    The spreadsheet as a paradigm forces one to decide on dimensionality right of the beginning of one's spreadsheet creation, even though it is often most natural to make these choices after one's spreadsheet model has matured. The desire to add and remove dimensions also arises in parametric and sensitivity analyses. [64] [65]

  9. Null (SQL) - Wikipedia

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

    E. F. Codd mentioned nulls as a method of representing missing data in the relational model in a 1975 paper in the FDT Bulletin of ACM-SIGMOD.Codd's paper that is most commonly cited with the semantics of Null (as adopted in SQL) is his 1979 paper in the ACM Transactions on Database Systems, in which he also introduced his Relational Model/Tasmania, although much of the other proposals from ...
