All About Metadata; Why Telling the Database About Your Schema Matters
It is interesting to note how important metadata – data about data – is in the database.
One important piece of metadata are database constraints. The database uses constraints
for query optimization as well as data integrity.&nb! sp; Most people understand that constraints are a ‘
data integrity feature,’ but are not as aware of the fact that the optimizer relies heavily on metadata
to operate at its best. We’ll explore the various types of metadata we as developers and DBAs
can assert into the database and the positive impact this metadata will have on us.
