1 Scope This document describes the definition and use of multidimensional arrays in SQL. Multidimensional arrays represent a core underlying structure of manifold science and engineering data. It is generally recognized today, therefore, that arrays have an essential role in Big Data and should become an integral part of the overall data type orchestration in information systems. This document discusses the syntax and semantics of operations on the MD-array data type defined in ISO/IEC 9075‑15.
