Everything about Essential tuple normal form
Normal form used in database normalization
Essential tuple normal form (ETNF) is a normal form used in database normalization. It lies strictly between fourth normal form (4NF) and fifth normal form (5NF). As per the original paper, ETNF, although strictly weaker than 5NF, is exactly as effective as 5NF in eliminating redundancy of tuples. Wikipedia →
