The optimization of SQL queries by means of drawing up query diagrams

Journal Title: Computer Science and Mathematical Modelling - Year 2011, Vol 0, Issue 7

Abstract

A poorly performing database application not only costs users time, but also has an impact on other applications running on the same computer or the same network. The best method to manage with this problem is performing SQL tuning. There are two basic issues to focus on during tuning: how to find and interpret the execution plan of an SQL statement and how to change a SQL query to get a specific alternate execution plan. But most important is how to find the optimal execution plan for the query to use. This article describes a timesaving method developed for finding the optimum execution plan – rapidly and systematically – regardless of the complexity of the SQL query or the database platform being used. It explains how to understand and control SQL execution plan and how to diagram SQL queries to deduce the best execution plan for a query.
