What is Normalization?
- Normalization is the process of minimizing redundancy from a relation or set of relations characteristics like Insertion, Update and Deletion Anomalies.
- Normalization rules divides larger tables into smaller tables and links them using relationships.
- The purpose of Normalization in SQL is to eliminate redundant (repetitive) data and ensure data is stored logically.
Database Normal Forms
list of Normal Forms in SQL:
-
- 1NF (First Normal Form)
- 2NF (Second Normal Form)
- 3NF (Third Normal Form)
- BCNF (Boyce-Codd Normal Form)
- 4NF (Fourth Normal Form)
- 5NF (Fifth Normal Form)
- 6NF (Sixth Normal Form)

After adding primary key to each table, the time to perform each of the queries was faster than what it was before. Creating a primary key help identify unique data. Primary key in a table is a crucial column used in queries, optimized for fast performance with an associated index. The primary key index is the most efficient access path for a table. They are created after a table is created, optimizing search speed. Once constructed, indexes are internal structures that the user cannot actively access. If the internal query optimization procedure concludes that using an index will increase search efficiency, then it will be employed. When SQL queries are internally ready for execution, they automatically undergo optimization. The best way to run each query is determined by the optimization process, which may or may not include using a relevant index.
