Normalization and denormalization..

Answer / vishnu

In relational Database design, the process of organizing
data to minimize redundancy is called Normalization.
Normalization usually involves dividing a database into two
or more tables and defining relationship b/w the tables.
1) 1st NF: Eliminate Repeating Group(Column)
2) 2nd NF: Eliminate Redundant Data
3) 3rd NF: Eliminate Columns Not dependent on Primary key
4) 4th NF: Isolate Independent Multiple Relationships
5) 5th NF: Isolate Semantically Related Multiple Relationships


De-normalization is the process of attempting to optimizing
the performance of a database by adding redundant data. It
is sometimes necessary bcoz current DBMSs implement the
relational model poorly. its a technique to move from higher
to lower normal forms of database modeling in order to speed
up database access.
