Mastering SQL EXPLAIN and Query Planning

bookChallenge: Spotting Inefficiencies

Tâche

Swipe to start coding

You are given an EXPLAIN output for a JOIN query between the orders and customers tables. The output shows that for each row in orders, the database performs a sequential scan on the customers table to find the matching customer, which is inefficient especially as the table grows. Your task is to propose a way to optimize this plan by modifying the database schema or indexes.

  • Identify the inefficient step in the EXPLAIN output.
  • Propose a schema or index change that would allow the database to perform the join more efficiently.
  • Write the necessary SQL statement to implement your proposed optimization.
