Hi,
I am a bit confused about these (in bold ) in the glossary.
https://code.kx.com/q/basics/glossary/#splayed-table says:
To limit the size of individual files, and to speed searches, it is common to splay a large table by storing its columns as separate files.
The files may also be partitioned.
Also, https://code.kx.com/q/basics/glossary/#partitioned-file says:
To limit the size of files in an HDB it is common to partition them by time period, for example, calendar day.
The partitioning scheme is described to kdb+ in thepar.txt
file.
Files representing a splayed table may also be partitioned.
Is this just about partitioned tables (by date,year,month or int) or there is some other way to partition individual files and those can be used as splayed table columns?
How can that be done?
Regards,
Andras
