- semiquaver 10y agoPostgres' MVCC architecture makes the idea of 'partial updates' kind of meaningless. An update to any postgres column is equivalent to a DELETE followed by an INSERT and will result in a new row on disk, leaving the old row to be vacuumed later.
- morgo 10y agoJust to clarify: s/architecture/implementation/ InnoDB is MVCC too, but does an update in place with relocation of the old row to UNDO space. There are pros and cons to both approaches.
