1.what Is Data Normalization

Data normalization is a process that organizes data in a database to reduce redundancy and improve integrity. It involves removing duplicate data and storing only the minimal amount of information needed. There are various normal forms that organize data in increasingly less redundant forms, with third normal form (3NF) being most common and removing horizontal redundancies to ensure each row is unique.

1.What is Data Normalization: Store only the minimal amount of information Remove redundancies. Restructure data.

2.Benefit of Data Normalization: Decrease storage requirements. Faster search performance. Improved data integrity.

3.Kinds of Normal Forms(NF): 1NF 2NF 3NF BCNF (Boyce-codd) 4NF 5NF

(Normal forms above 3NF are mainly for academics, and are not seen very often in the nature.) 4. 1NF 5. 2NF 6. 3NF Table must be 2NF. All columns must be relative directly to the primary key. Table must be in 1NF. Remove vertical redundancy. (the same value shouldnt repeat across row) Composite key. (all columns in a row must refer to BOTH path of key). Remove horizontal redundancies. (No 2 columns hold the same information, No single column holds more than a single item) Each row must be unique. (Use a primary key)
