Compression is used to Minimize the table size, for example
when the table size is increasing anonymously We can use
Compression to reduce the size of the table
Conditions:
1.Compression can be declared at the time of table creation
2.We can compress up to 256 column values(not columns)
3.We can't compress variable length fields
(vartext,varchar..)
Explanation for 2 condition:
create table tab1
(
:
:
Order_type char(25) compress ('air','sea','road')
:
)
in the above example order type have 3 fields, one should
be selected by the user, so one of the field will repeat
for every order, like these column values we can use
compress statement because these are repeating for entire
table, like these column values TD supports 256 col
generally NCR people will provides ready made scripts for
these type of compressions
