Great explanation! A word of note for those who were also not understanding (like me) due to the suit system ; The suit strength goes clubs I just found out that apparently that there's two systems of suit strength : clubs and diamonds I know the latter. I didn't know the alphabetical order even existed.

I was just ordering alphabetically for this video! Thanks for digging out the other suit sorting method

This is amazing how you explain and make it simple. Thank you very much!

Great vidéo! My sum up: Definitions: [from other source]The Optimiser will decide which table will be the _inner_ or _outer_ table. - The outer table is the source of rows to match against the inner table. It is usually read from disk. - The inner table is the table that is probed for matches. It is usually held in memory, is usually the source table for hashing, and if possible, is the smallest table of the two being joined. Nested Loops: TL;DR : good if you only have a small subset of rows to join from the outer table, AND you have an index on the inner table. For each row in the outer table, it will look for all the row in the inner table. Without any index, you get a complexity of o(number of rows in Table1 * number of rows in Table2). This is very inefficient, unless you only have a small number of rows from the outer table to join (or a small subset of the outer table to join), AND you have an index on the joining column of the inner table. Thanks to the index of the inner table, the nested loop (that looks for the matching row in the inner table) will be fast. And as there are few rows triggering the nested loop, the whole operation will be pretty Note that if you also have an index for the outer table, finding the subset of rows that we want to join is even faster; but this is optional. If the number of rows to join from the outer table is small, but not that small, the Optimiser may have a hard time deciding whether to use a Nested Loop or Hash Join, so having up to date statistics is important. Merge Join: TL;DR: good even if you have lots of rows to join, but requires an index on the outer table to be efficient. Both tables are first sorted by the joining column (¿sorted in memory?), and then joined. The sorting allows to read the the inner table bit by bit : the RDMS reeds the 1st row from the sorted outer table, and then looks in the inner table for matching rows. When the next row no longer matches, it means that there won’t be any other matching row, as the table is sorted. This allows to only have to read each table once. Merge joins are thus efficient even if many rows have to be joined. But the sorting operation is expensive… Sorting both tables means a complexity roughly of o(#Table1 * Log #Table1 + #Table2 * Log #Table2) However, if you have an index for the outer table (on the joining column), then only the inner table will have to be sorted. Indeed, indexes are sorted, so the RDBMS will use the outer table index to read it in a sorted manner. Sadly, even if you have an index for the inner table, Oracle DB will still have to sort it [10:28]. Hash Join: TL;DR: works only for equality joins (e.g. not for “joincolumTable1 > joincolumnTable2”). Good for large amount of rows to join. It is the most efficient most of the time. Complexity is o(number of rows in Table1 + number of rows in Table2) A hash table of table1 is computed in memory, and then the value of each of table2 is hashed, and an equality of hash value is looked for in the hash table.

Great explanation! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge.

Thanks! You have to be careful using hints. To ensure the optimizer picks a particular plan, typically you need LOTS of hints to ensure it does this. When using Oracle Database we recommend you use SQL Plan Management (SQL profiles & baselines) to manage plans instead.

U r a gem

this is super good. just for my understanding, you said when we just have few card (5) from outer deck to match nested loop becomes faster as it can start matching from the first card however, hash join still needs to create hash table for all 52 cards from outer table. why should it create hash table for 52 instead of 5, assuming the filter is already applied and it knows those 5 rows already.

@TheMagicofSQL

2 жыл бұрын

Thanks Perhaps I wasn't clear on this - I was thinking of a Top-N, "get the first 5 rows then stop" query. Instead of a where clause that only matches 5 rows, the result set (could) be bigger. But we'll stop as soon as we've returned 5 rows. Because nested loops join rows immediately, it can stop as soon as it reads 5 rows from the outer table (assuming they all join to a row in the inner table). A hash join always builds the hash table on the whole outer table first. If the where clause identifies 5 rows from the outer table, you're right the hash join will only build on these 5 rows.

Thank you for a clear explanation! But I am still wondering why the merge sort needs to start on the previous value if we know it was already joined with the last value from the outer deck. Is there something I have missed? Thanks :)

@TheMagicofSQL

Жыл бұрын

There could be many rows with the same value. Going back to the previous value is simple way to ensure you always capture them all. It also works for greater/less than comparisons - if the join is C1 > C2 then you'll be on the last row/value in the inner deck after the first row from the outer. But likely need to revisit most of the rows in the inner deck when you go to the second in the outer.

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Excellent explanation for something that took me years to learn and I even bought some books to try to understand this concepts. Still have questions in my mind like - what is considered a big table ( how many rows - at the end normally the answer is -> It depends). Also how many rows are a few rows to return base on the total numbers of rows in a table. Also explain this with two tables is kind of Ok, now in real life RL when there are 3,4, ... tables - I know at the end is always join two tables but when the query is complex is very tiring to try to figure out what is the best join between table t1 and t3 and now t1 and t4 etc.. - Any way a Big thank you again.

@TheMagicofSQL

2 жыл бұрын

Yeah "big table" doesn't really have a fixed definition! Remember that when deciding join order & method it's not the total number of rows in the table that matters. It's how many rows the optimizer expects to fetch from that table. In general the optimizer tries to start by joining the two tables that you fetch the fewest rows from. Then adding the tables with more rows & finish by joining the table that returns the most. This is because starting with the smallest data set and adding to it is more efficient than starting with the biggest data set. When the optimizer gets the "wrong" join order & method, it's often because the number of rows it estimates is significantly different (an order of magnitude or more) to the actual number it processes.

when we compare the complexity we only compared based on the number of matches however the hash join also needs to build hash table, how can we estimate the cost of that to compare with other two.
