Database Tuning
(Improving Performance)

Database Performance via Indexes
What is an index?
Defined: Mechanism that enables a database to locate a
record in row rapidly (e.g. table of contents or
textbook index)
Best Practice Don’ts:
1. Don’t index every column
a. Indexing uses extra storage space
b. Additional time is required to create indexed
columns during data insert
c. Too many indexes increase search time to
locate record
2. Don’t index primary keys, they are already indexed
Database Performance via Index Selection
What to index:
1. Columns in a WHERE clause
SELECT * FROM authors
WHERE author = 'Max Lucado';
// author should be indexed
2. Columns in an ORDER BY clause
SELECT * FROM contacts
ORDER BY author;
// author should be indexed
3. Columns in MIN and MAX clauses
SELECT MAX(elevation) FROM mountain;
// elevation should be indexed
Database Performance via Index Creation
Creating an Index
Indexing upon table creation:
CREATE TABLE employee (
id INT NOT NULL
AUTO_INCREMENT, // id
name VARCHAR(11),
INDEX name_ix(name) );
Indexing an existing table:
CREATE INDEX name_ix ON
employee(name);
Database Performance via Unique Index
Creating an Unique Index
Unique Index upon table creation:
CREATE TABLE employee (
id INT NOT NULL
AUTO_INCREMENT,
ss_number VARCHAR(11),
UNIQUE ss_uq(ss_number) );
Unique Index for an existing table:
CREATE UNIQUE INDEX ss_uq ON
employee(ss_number);
Database Performance via Multiple Index
Multiple Column Index
Description: Unlike primary keys, an index can be applied to
multiple columns. Multi-column unique key, for example,
could assure that the combination of two columns is
unique.
Example:
CREATE UNIQUE INDEX state_uq ON
location(city, state);
location
city
state
Manhattan
KS
Manhattan
NY
Query Performance (Before Indexing)
Explain: Analyzes the efficiency of the SQL statement.
Example:
EXPLAIN SELECT *
FROM author
WHERE name = 'John MacArthur';
id
select_type
table
type
possible_keys
key
key_len
ref
rows
1
SIMPLE
author
ALL
NULL
NULL

Using
where
Explain Explained:
type: ALL means every record is scanned to determine match.
possible_keys: NULL means no index defined.
key: NULL means no key is used by query.
rows: Number of rows searched for query (there are 7 records in the
database).
Query Performance (After Indexing)
Example:
ALTER TABLE author ADD
CONSTRAINT name_uq UNIQUE(name);
DESCRIBE author;
