Description and Table of Contents
Description
This text demonstrates how to create high performance relational database designs. It concentrates on making database designs work, showing how to move away from the relational rules to achieve performance oriented designs. The impact of locking, recovery and optimization are discussed with design approaches to minimize their effect. A discussion of the features of Sybase shows how a specific database product must be designed to maximize its capabilities.
Table of Contents
- Relational models
- physical design - general concepts
- mapping entities to tables
- mapping keys to indices
- recovery and locking
- denormalization and overnormalization
