What are the typical trade-offs between normalization and denormalization in terms of storage and query performance?
- Both normalization and denormalization increase storage space
- Both normalization and denormalization simplify query complexity
- Denormalization increases storage space but simplifies query complexity
- Normalization reduces storage space but may increase query complexity
Normalization typically reduces storage space by eliminating redundancy but may lead to more complex queries due to the need for joins. Denormalization increases storage space by duplicating data but simplifies query complexity by reducing the need for joins.
