Topics covered include:
• Using multi-column indexes

• Efficient use of LIKE queries
• Optimizing join operations
• Clustering data to improve performance
• Pipelined execution of ORDER BY and GROUP BY
• Getting the best performance for pagination queries
• Understanding the scalability of databases

Its systematic structure makes SQL Performance Explained both a textbook and a reference manual that should be on every developer’s bookshelf.
