  2. Datapath - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Datapath

    A larger data path can be made by joining more than one data paths using multiplexers. A data path is the ALU, the set of registers, and the CPU's internal bus(es) that allow data to flow between them. [2] A microarchitecture data path organized around a single bus. The simplest design for a CPU uses one common internal bus.

  3. 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 ...

  4. Data query language - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_query_language

    DQL statements are used for performing queries on the data within schema objects. The purpose of DQL commands is to get the schema relation based on the query passed to it. Although often considered part of DML, the SQL SELECT statement is strictly speaking an example of DQL. When adding FROM or WHERE data manipulators to the SELECT statement ...

  5. SQL syntax - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SQL_syntax

    SQL statements also include the semicolon (";") statement terminator. Though not required on every platform, it is defined as a standard part of the SQL grammar. Insignificant whitespace is generally ignored in SQL statements and queries, making it easier to format SQL code for readability.

  6. Data retrieval - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_retrieval

    Data retrieval means obtaining data from a database management system (DBMS), like for example an object-oriented database (ODBMS). In this case, it is considered that data is represented in a structured way, and there is no ambiguity in data. In order to retrieve the desired data the user presents a set of criteria by a query. Then the ...

  7. Database administration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database_administration

    Development DBAs: focus on the logical and development aspects of database administration such as data model design and maintenance, DDL (data definition language) generation, SQL writing and tuning, coding stored procedures, collaborating with developers to help choose the most appropriate DBMS feature/functionality and other pre-production ...

  8. Database connection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database_connection

    Database connections are finite and expensive and can take a disproportionately long time to create relative to the operations performed on them. It is inefficient for an application to create, use, and close a database connection whenever it needs to update a database. Connection pooling is a technique designed to alleviate this problem. A ...

  9. Query plan - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Query_plan

    Other tools allow a special mode to be set on the connection to cause the DBMS to return a textual description of the query plan. Another mechanism for retrieving the query plan involves querying a virtual database table after executing the query to be examined. In Oracle, for instance, this can be achieved using the EXPLAIN PLAN statement.
