Tables are the most basic data storage units in OceanBase Database.

Background

A table contains specific data that a user can access. A table consists of rows, and a row consists of columns.

Table planning rules

Before you create and use tables, you can plan the tables by following these principles:

  • Use tables based on the standard procedure and use reasonable table structures to minimize data redundancy.

  • Select a suitable SQL data type for each column.

  • Choose a suitable table type based on your needs. OceanBase Database supports partitioned and non-partitioned tables.
