Disadvantages of Static Hashing
Disadvantages of using static hashing techniques in DBMS are:
- Static hashing is not a good choice for big data.
- This process takes longer than usual because the hash function has to go through all memory locations in the DBMS system.
- Does not work with extensible databases.
- The sorting technique is not good compared to other hashing techniques.
Static Hashing in DBMS
Static hashing refers to a hashing technique that allows the user to search over a pre-processed dictionary (all elements present in the dictionary are final and unmodified). In this article, we will take an in-depth look at static hashing in a DBMS.
