Horizontal Fragmentation

Horizontal fragmentation partitions a relation along its tuples. There are two versions of horizontal partitioning:

  • Primary horizontal fragmentation.
  • Derived horizontal fragmentation.

 

Primary horizontal fragmentation: is defined by a selection operation on the owner relations of a database schema.

Derived horizontal fragmentation: is defined on a member relation of a link according to a selection operation specified by its owner.
