- Tuple – It is nothing but a single row of a table, which contains a single record.
- Relation Schema: A relation schema represents the name of the relation with its attributes.
- Degree: The total number of attributes which in the relation is called the degree of the relation.
- Cardinality: Total number of rows present in the Table.
- Column: The column represents the set of values for a specific attribute.
- Relation instance – Relation instance is a finite set of tuples in the RDBMS system. Relation instances never have duplicate tuples.
- Relation key – Every row has one, two or multiple attributes, which is called relation key.
- Attribute domain – Every attribute has some pre-defined value and scope which is known as attribute domain
