what is normalization? Explain different levels of normalization? : Sql server database administration
Answer / Kamlesh Kumar Singh
Normalization is the process of organizing a database to minimize data redundancy and dependency, improving efficiency and enforcing data integrity. It's based on several normal forms (NF) to establish rules for how tables should be structured. The main levels are:nn1) First Normal Form (1NF): Each column must contain atomic values (indivisible), and each table row must be unique.n2) Second Normal Form (2NF): A table should be in 1NF, and every non-key attribute should depend on the primary key.n3) Third Normal Form (3NF): A table should be in 2NF, and there should not exist any transitive dependencies (one non-prime attribute depends on another non-prime attribute that is part of the primary key).nThere are further normal forms like Boyce-Codd Normal Form (BCNF), Fourth Normal Form (4NF), and Fifth Normal Form (5NF), but they are less commonly used.
