  2. Query optimization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Query_optimization

    The query optimizer attempts to determine the most efficient way to execute a given query by considering the possible query plans. [1] Generally, the query optimizer cannot be accessed directly by users: once queries are submitted to the database server, and parsed by the parser, they are then passed to the query optimizer where optimization ...

  3. Query plan - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Query_plan

    Some query tools can generate embedded hints in the query, for use by the optimizer. Some databases - like Oracle - provide a plan table for query tuning. This plan table will return the cost and time for executing a query. Oracle offers two optimization approaches: CBO or Cost Based Optimization; RBO or Rule Based Optimization

  4. Relational algebra - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relational_algebra

    Lecture Notes: Relational Algebra – A quick tutorial to adapt SQL queries into relational algebra; Relational – A graphic implementation of the relational algebra; Query Optimization This paper is an introduction into the use of the relational algebra in optimizing queries, and includes numerous citations for more in-depth study.

  5. Skyline operator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skyline_operator

    The skyline operator is the subject of an optimization problem and computes the Pareto optimum on tuples with multiple dimensions.. This operator is an extension to SQL proposed by Börzsönyi et al. [1] to filter results from a database to keep only those objects that are not worse in multiple dimensions than any other.

  6. Select (SQL) - Wikipedia

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

    The database translates the query into a "query plan" which may vary between executions, database versions and database software. This functionality is called the "query optimizer" as it is responsible for finding the best possible execution plan for the query, within applicable constraints. The SELECT statement has many optional clauses:

  7. Database tuning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database_tuning

    Database tuning describes a group of activities used to optimize and homogenize the performance of a database.It usually overlaps with query tuning, but refers to design of the database files, selection of the database management system (DBMS) application, and configuration of the database's environment (operating system, CPU, etc.).

  8. Sargable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sargable

    A query failing to be sargable is known as a non-sargable query and typically has a negative effect on query time, so one of the steps in query optimization is to convert them to be sargable. The effect is similar to searching for a specific term in a book that has no index, beginning at page one each time, instead of jumping to a list of ...

  9. Database theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database_theory

    Database theory encapsulates a broad range of topics related to the study and research of the theoretical realm of databases and database management systems.. Theoretical aspects of data management include, among other areas, the foundations of query languages, computational complexity and expressive power of queries, finite model theory, database design theory, dependency theory, foundations ...
