Abstract: Abstract Partitioning is the process of dividing a logical database into distinct independent datasets. Partitions are database objects itself and can be managed independently. The main reason to apply data partitioning is to achieve data-level parallelism Data-level parallelism and thus to enable performance gains. Nowadays, multi-core CPUs that are capable to process several distinct data areas in parallel harness partitioned data structures.
