Master Normalization in Database Management

The purpose of normalization is to minimize redundancy and eliminate undesirable characteristics like insertion, update, and deletion anomalies.

The problems that can occur include making relations very large, difficulty in maintaining and updating data, wastage and poor utilization of disk space and resources, and an increase in the likelihood of errors and inconsistencies.

Normalization is the process of decomposing relations with redundant data into smaller, simpler, and well-structured relations that satisfy desirable properties. It is used to reduce redundancy from the database table by dividing larger tables into smaller ones and linking them using relationships.
