HEAP


HEAP - a MySQL storage mechanism for storing data. Its characteristic feature is the instability of stored information - all are stored only in the RAM of the server and disappear with the end of the MySQL server. However, using only memory provides an unpredictable speed for other storage mechanisms. For this reason, its main use is the creation of various cache buffers and the storage of temporary information, the loss of which does not cause any major damage.

From MySQL 4.1, the recommended name is MEMORY.

An example of a command that creates a HEAP table containing one column, which is also a primary key: CREATE TABLE testowyHeap ( identyfikator int (11) NOT NULL auto_increment, PRIMARY KEY (identifier) ) ENGINE=MEMORY;
