  2. Static hashing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Static_Hashing

    Since static hashing requires that the database, its objects, and reference remain the same, its applications are limited.Databases which contain information which changes rarely are also eligible as it would only require a full rehash of the entire database on rare occasion.

  3. Hash function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hash_function

    A universal hashing scheme is a randomized algorithm that selects a hash function h among a family of such functions, in such a way that the probability of a collision of any two distinct keys is 1/m, where m is the number of distinct hash values desired—independently of the two keys. Universal hashing ensures (in a probabilistic sense) that ...

  4. Hash table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hash_table

    A hash table uses a hash function to compute an index, also called a hash code, into an array of buckets or slots, from which the desired value can be found. During lookup, the key is hashed and the resulting hash indicates where the corresponding value is stored. A map implemented by a hash table is called a hash map.

  5. DBM (computing) - Wikipedia

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

    The dbm library stores arbitrary data by use of a single key (a primary key) in fixed-size buckets and uses hashing techniques to enable fast retrieval of the data by key. The hashing scheme used is a form of extendible hashing , so that the hashing scheme expands as new buckets are added to the database, meaning that, when nearly empty, the ...

  7. Database encryption - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database_encryption

    In the context of database encryption, hashing is often used in password systems. When a user first creates their password it is run through a hashing algorithm and saved as a hash. When the user logs back into the website, the password that they enter is run through the hashing algorithm and is then compared to the stored hash. [ 29 ]

  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.
