Definicija: A table built on a partition scheme, and whose data is horizontally divided into units which may be spread across more than one filegroup in a database.

Definicija: A disk-partitioning scheme that is used by the Extensible Firmware Interface (EFI). GPT offers more advantages than master boot record (MBR) partitioning because it allows up to 128 partitions per disk, provides support for volumes up to 18 exabytes in size, allows primary and backup partition tables for redundancy, and supports unique disk and partition IDs (GUIDs).

Definicija: The column of a table or index that a partition function uses to partition a table or index.

Definicija: An article (generally a SQL Server table, but could also be a view) that has been filtered in some way.

Definicija: To segment a single table into multiple tables based on selected rows.

Definicija: A view that joins horizontally partitioned data from a set of member tables across a single server, making the data appear as if from one table.

Definicija: The iterative process, used by data mining algorithm providers, of dividing data into groups until no more useful groups can be found.

Definicija: The process of splitting a single table into multiple tables based on selected columns. Each of the multiple tables has the same number of rows but fewer columns.

Definicija: In merge replication, a snapshot that includes only the data from a single partition.

Definicija: The iterative process, used by data mining algorithm providers, of dividing data into groups until no more useful groups can be found.

Definicija: To segment a single table into multiple tables based on selected rows.

Definicija: A way of partitioning a table or index by allowing SQL Server to apply an internal hash algorithm to spread rows across partitions based on the number of partitions specified and the values of one or more partitioning columns.

Definicija: The column of a table or index that a partition function uses to partition a table or index.

Definicija: To segment a single table into multiple tables based on selected rows.

Definicija: A view that joins horizontally partitioned data from a set of member tables across a single server, making the data appear as if from one table.

Definicija: A view that joins horizontally partitioned data from a set of member tables across more than one server, making the data appear as if from one table.

Definicija: A view that joins horizontally partitioned data from a set of member tables across more than one server, making the data appear as if from one table.

Definicija: A view that joins horizontally partitioned data from a set of member tables across more than one server, making the data appear as if from one table.

Definicija: In merge replication, a snapshot that includes only the data from a single partition.

Definicija: A way of partitioning a table or index by specifying partitions to hold rows with ranges of values from a single partitioning column.
