Transitional Medical Assistance (TMA) Under Medicaid: Rowid Data Types
Every row stored in the database has an address. Oracle Database uses a ROWID data type to
store the address (rowid) of every row in the database. Rowids fall into the following categories:
Physical rowids store the addresses of rows in heap-organized tables, table clusters, and table and
index partitions.
Logical rowids store the addresses of rows in index-organized tables.
Foreign rowids are identifiers in foreign tables, such as DB2 tables accessed through a gateway.
They are not standard Oracle Database rowids.
