Merging refers to combining two datasets by aligning rows based on a shared key (such as a foreign key relationship), which is the standard relational database join operation. Appending stacks datasets vertically (adding more rows), blending is a looser connection term used in tools like Tableau where data sources are linked without a formal join, and mixing is not a standard data integration term.
