In Chapter 3, we discussed SQL in depth. We discussed two basic categories of SQL statements: data definition language (DDL) statements, which are used for creating tables, relationships, and other structures, and data manipulation language (DML) statements, which are used for querying and modifying data. In this appendix, which should be studied immediately after Chapter 3, we: • Describe and illustrate SQL views, which extend the DML capabilities of SQL. • Describe and illustrate SQL Persistent Stored Modules (SQL/PSM), and create user-defined functions. • Describe and use DBMS data import techniques to import Microsoft Excel worksheet data into a database. E-3 Database Concepts SQL Views, SQL/PSM and Importing Data Appendix E Creating SQL Views An SQL view is a virtual table that is constructed from other tables or views.

  • Support Aggregate Analytic Window Function Over Large Data by Spilling
    Support Aggregate Analytic Window Function over Large Data by Spilling Xing Shi and Chao Wang Guangdong University of Technology, Guangzhou, Guangdong 510006, China North China University of Technology, Beijing 100144, China Abstract. ​Analytic function, also called window function, is to query the aggregation of data over a sliding window. For example, a simple query over the online stock platform is to return the average price of a stock of the last three days. These functions are commonly used features in SQL databases. They are supported in most of the commercial databases. With the increasing usage of cloud data infra and machine learning technology, the frequency of queries with analytic window functions rises. Some analytic functions only require const space in memory to store the state, such as SUM, AVG, while others require linear space, such as MIN, MAX. When the window is extremely large, the memory space to store the state may be too large. In this case, we need to spill the state to disk, which is a heavy operation. In this paper, we proposed an algorithm to manipulate the state data in the disk to reduce the disk I/O to make spill available and efficiency. We analyze the complexity of the algorithm with different data distribution. 1. Introducion In this paper, we develop novel spill techniques for analytic window function in SQL databases. And discuss different various types of aggregate queries, e.g., COUNT, AVG, SUM, MAX, MIN, etc., over a relational table. Aggregate ​analytic function, also called aggregate window function, is to query the aggregation of data over a sliding window.

  • SQL DELETE Table in SQL, DELETE Statement Is Used to Delete Rows from a Table
    SQL is a standard language for storing, manipulating and retrieving data in databases. What is SQL? SQL stands for Structured Query Language SQL lets you access and manipulate databases SQL became a standard of the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) in 1986, and of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in 1987 What Can SQL do? SQL can execute queries against a database SQL can retrieve data from a database SQL can insert records in a database SQL can update records in a database SQL can delete records from a database SQL can create new databases SQL can create new tables in a database SQL can create stored procedures in a database SQL can create views in a database SQL can set permissions on tables, procedures, and views Using SQL in Your Web Site To build a web site that shows data from a database, you will need: An RDBMS database program (i.e. MS Access, SQL Server, MySQL) To use a server-side scripting language, like PHP or ASP To use SQL to get the data you want To use HTML / CSS to style the page RDBMS RDBMS stands for Relational Database Management System. RDBMS is the basis for SQL, and for all modern database systems such as MS SQL Server, IBM DB2, Oracle, MySQL, and Microsoft Access. The data in RDBMS is stored in database objects called tables. A table is a collection of related data entries and it consists of columns and rows. SQL Table SQL Table is a collection of data which is organized in terms of rows and columns.

INTRODUCTION The join operation of relational algebra is a cornerstone of The relational model and relational algebra, due to Edgar relational database systems. Computing the join of several F. Codd [3] underlies the majority of today’s database man- relations is NP-hard in general, whereas special (and typi- agement systems. Essential to the ability to express queries cal) cases are tractable. This paper considers joins having in relational algebra is the natural join operation, and its an acyclic join graph, for which current methods initially variants. In a typical relational algebra expression there will apply a full reducer to efficiently eliminate tuples that will be a number of joins. Determining how to compute these not contribute to the result of the join. From a worst-case joins in a database management system is at the heart of perspective, previous algorithms for computing an acyclic query optimization, a long-standing and active field of de- join of k fully reduced relations, occupying a total of n ≥ k velopment in academic and industrial database research.
