Row migration will happen as the data grows....


Can you please take a minute and explain me how does row migration work...?
mmhhh... not exactly.

Row MIGRATION will occur when an update on affected row makes it grow large enough not fit anymore on the original block then the row gets migrated to a different block leaving behind a pointer.

Row CHAINING will occur when a row is larger than a single data block then the row will be split into more than one data block.
