PostgreSQL Execution Plan In PostgreSQL, you can obtain the execution plan with runtime information using the EXPLAIN (ANALYZE, VERBOSE) command. This command in particular, provides a detailed execution plan along with actual runtime information, including […]
PostgreSQL‘s query optimizer (or planner) creates optimal execution plans for SQL queries by evaluating multiple possibilities and selecting the fastest approach. [^1] As a result, it plays a central role in ensuring efficient query execution. […]
Introduction: Adaptive joins are an exciting feature in PostgreSQL. They dynamically adjust the join method during query execution to optimize performance. This article explores adaptive joins in PostgreSQL, their benefits, and how they can improve […]
In PostgreSQL, the optimizer selects which indexes to use for query execution based on cost-based optimization. The goal is to choose the most efficient index or combination of indexes. This should minimize the total cost […]
In PostgreSQL, plans are implemented by using the query execution plan generated by the query optimizer. Aggregation and spool operations serve as key components in query plans, enabling efficient processing of aggregate queries. Let’s now […]
Common Table Expressions (CTEs) provide a structured way to define temporary named result sets within a SQL statement in PostgreSQL. In particular, CTEs are useful for breaking down complex queries into smaller, more manageable parts. […]
In PostgreSQL, the system allocates memory at various stages during query execution and other database operations. Below are key points where PostgreSQL allocates memory: It’s important to note that memory allocation in PostgreSQL is dynamic […]
In PostgreSQL, the work_mem configuration parameter controls how many blocks a process reads from a single sort run in one read. This parameter defines the amount of memory allocated for each internal sort operation, including […]
In PostgreSQL, the query optimizer has several access paths at its disposal to determine the most efficient way to access and retrieve data from tables or indexes. The choice of access path depends on factors […]
