SQL Unique

🎯 한 줄 통찰 (One-line insight)

UNIQUE guarantees every value in a column is distinct — like PRIMARY KEY, but a table can have many UNIQUE constraints versus only one PRIMARY KEY. [S1]

🧠 핵심 개념 (Core concepts)

  • UNIQUE constraint — ensures all values in a column are unique. [S1]
  • UNIQUE vs. PRIMARY KEY — both guarantee uniqueness, but a table can have many UNIQUE constraints, and only one PRIMARY KEY. [S1]
  • On CREATE TABLE — inline (ID int NOT NULL UNIQUE) for SQL Server/Oracle/Access, or a separate UNIQUE (ID) clause for MySQL. [S1]
  • Named/multi-column UNIQUECONSTRAINT UC_Person UNIQUE (ID, LastName) names the constraint and spans multiple columns. [S1]
  • On ALTER TABLEALTER TABLE Persons ADD UNIQUE (ID); for an existing table. [S1]
  • DroppingDROP INDEX UC_Person; (MySQL) vs. DROP CONSTRAINT UC_Person; (SQL Server/Oracle/Access). [S1]

⚖️ 모순 및 업데이트 (Contradictions & updates)

  • MySQL 문법 차이: 다른 벤더는 컬럼 옆에 인라인 UNIQUE 키워드를 쓰지만, MySQL은 별도의 UNIQUE (ID) 절이 필요함. 드롭 시에도 MySQL은 DROP INDEX, 나머지는 DROP CONSTRAINT로 갈린다. [S1]

📖 세부 내용 (Details)

  • SQL Server/Oracle/Access inline: CREATE TABLE Persons (ID int NOT NULL UNIQUE, ...);. [S1]
  • MySQL: CREATE TABLE Persons (ID int NOT NULL, ..., UNIQUE (ID));. [S1]
  • Named multi-column constraint: CONSTRAINT UC_Person UNIQUE (ID,LastName). [S1]
  • Add to existing table: ALTER TABLE Persons ADD UNIQUE (ID);. [S1]

🛠️ 적용 사례 (Applied in summary)

현재 발견된 실제 적용 사례가 없습니다 — PRIMARY KEY가 이미 있는 컬럼 외에 "고유해야 하지만 대표키는 아닌" 컬럼(예: 이메일, 주민번호)에 흔히 쓰인다. [S1]

💻 코드 패턴 (Code patterns)

Named multi-column UNIQUE (SQL):

CREATE TABLE Persons (
    ID int NOT NULL,
    LastName varchar(255) NOT NULL,
    FirstName varchar(255),
    Age int,
    CONSTRAINT UC_Person UNIQUE (ID,LastName)
);
