| comp., MS | GUID partition table | GUID-Partitionstabelle (A disk-partitioning scheme that is used by the Extensible Firmware Interface (EFI). GPT offers more advantages than master boot record (MBR) partitioning because it allows up to 128 partitions per disk, provides support for volumes up to 18 exabytes in size, allows primary and backup partition tables for redundancy, and supports unique disk and partition IDs (GUIDs)) |
| comp., MS | partition table | Partitionstabelle (On a hard disk, the data structure that stores the offset (location) and size of each primary partition on the disk. On MBR disks, the partition table is located in the master boot record. On GPT disks, the partition table is located in the GUID partition entry array) |
| comp., MS | partitioned table | partitionierte Tabelle (A table built on a partition scheme, and whose data is horizontally divided into units which may be spread across more than one filegroup in a database) |
| comp., MS | partitioned table parallelism | Parallelverarbeitung für partitionierte Tabellen (The parallel execution strategy for queries that select from partitioned objects. As part of the execution strategy, the query processor determines the table partitions that are required for the query and the proportion of threads to allocate to each partition. In most cases, the query processor allocates an equal or almost equal number of threads to each partition, and then executes the query in parallel across the partitions) |
