  2. Correlated subquery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Correlated_subquery

    In a SQL database query, a correlated subquery (also known as a synchronized subquery) is a subquery (a query nested inside another query) that uses values from the outer query. This can have major impact on performance because the correlated subquery might get recomputed every time for each row of the outer query is processed.

  3. Query optimization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Query_optimization

    A SQL query to a modern relational DBMS does more than just selections and joins. In particular, SQL queries often nest several layers of SPJ blocks (Select-Project-Join), by means of group by, exists, and not exists operators. In some cases such nested SQL queries can be flattened into a select-project-join query, but not always. Query plans ...

  4. Join (SQL) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Join_(SQL)

    A query optimizer determines how to execute a query containing joins. A query optimizer has two basic freedoms: Join order: Because it joins functions commutatively and associatively, the order in which the system joins tables does not change the final result set of the query.

  5. SQL syntax - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SQL_syntax

    Queries can be nested so that the results of one query can be used in another query via a relational operator or aggregation function. A nested query is also known as a subquery. While joins and other table operations provide computationally superior (i.e. faster) alternatives in many cases, the use of subqueries introduces a hierarchy in ...

  6. Select (SQL) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Select_(SQL)

    Queries can be nested so that the results of one query can be used in another query via a relational operator or aggregation function. A nested query is also known as a subquery. While joins and other table operations provide computationally superior (i.e. faster) alternatives in many cases (all depending on implementation), the use of ...

  7. Conjunctive query - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conjunctive_Query

    Conjunctive queries also correspond to select-project-join queries in relational algebra (i.e., relational algebra queries that do not use the operations union or difference) and to select-from-where queries in SQL in which the where-condition uses exclusively conjunctions of atomic equality conditions, i.e. conditions constructed from column ...

  8. Monotonic query - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monotonic_query

    Formally, a query q over a schema R is monotonic if and only if for every two instances I, J of R, () (q must be a monotonic function). [1] An example of a monotonic query is a select-project-join query containing only conditions of equality (also known as conjunctive queries). Examples of non-monotonic queries are aggregation queries, or ...

  9. Block nested loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block_nested_loop

    A block-nested loop (BNL) is an algorithm used to join two relations in a relational database. [ 1 ] This algorithm [ 2 ] is a variation of the simple nested loop join and joins two relations R {\displaystyle R} and S {\displaystyle S} (the "outer" and "inner" join operands, respectively).
