Prerequisites
- None
Topics

- All Netezza Tables are spread across All SPUs
- The Table Header and the Data Rows are Stored Separately
- A SPU Stores Rows of a Table inside a Data Block (Extent)
- To Read Rows, a SPU Moves the Data Block into Memory
- A Full Table Scan Means All SPUs must Read All Rows
- The 'Achilles Heel', or Slowest Process, is Block Transfer
- Each Table has a Distribution Key
- A Query Using the Distribution Key uses a Single SPU.
- As Rows are Added, Another Extent is added
- A Full Table Scan Means All SPUs Read All Blocks
- Distribution Key Query uses One SPU
