This book is a deep dive into perhaps the single-most
important facet of good performance: indexes, and how to best use them.
The book begins in the shallow waters with explanations of the types of
indexes and how they are stored in databases. Moving deeper into the
topic, and further into the book, you will look at the statistics that
are accumulated both by indexes and on indexes. You’ll better understand
what indexes are doing in the database and what can be done to mitigate
and improve their effect on performance. The final destination is a
guided tour through a number of real life scenarios showing approaches
you can take to investigate, mitigate, and improve the performance of
your database.
Defines the types of indexes and their implementation options
Provides use cases and common patterns in applying indexing
Describes and explain the index metadata and statistics
Provides a framework of strategies and approaches for indexing databases
