Keyword

The SQL contains reserved and non-reserved words. Reserved keywords must not be used as other identifiers in accordance with standards. Non-reserved keywords have special meanings only in specific environments and can be used as identifiers in other environments. Even so, do not use non-reserved keywords.

You can use SELECT * FROM pg_get_keywords(); to query the keyword of DWS.

Example: AUTHORIZATION is a reserved keyword. Using it as a table name causes an error and prevents the table from being created.

However, you can use AUTHORIZATION as a function or type name under certain conditions (see the table below).

Figure 2 Using a keyword as a function name

Identifier Naming Conventions

A database identifier is a name that uniquely identifies an object (such as a table, column, or index) in a database. In a database, identifiers are often used to reference database objects in SQL query statements to ensure the accuracy and consistency of database operations. It is important to name and use identifiers properly. The naming of DWS identifiers must comply with the following rules:

  • The identifier must consist of letters (a-z), underscores (_), digits (0-9), and dollar signs ($).
  • An identifier name should start with a letter (a-z) or an underscore (_).
  • The identifier can contain a maximum of 63 characters.
  • Avoid using SQL reserved words as identifiers. Be careful with non-reserved keywords too.
  • If the database uses GBK, UTF8, or SQL_ASCII, identifiers can include Chinese characters. In UTF8 or SQL_ASCII, each Chinese character takes up three bytes, with a maximum of 21 characters. In GBK, each Chinese character takes up two bytes, with a maximum of 31 characters. The Latin1 character set does not support Chinese characters. The character set is set when creating the database. For details, see CREATE DATABASE.
