Multiple row subqueries

Multiple-row subqueries in SQL return more than one row as the result and are typically used with operators like IN, ANY, ALL, or EXISTS.

 

Consider a table named Orders with columns OrderID, CustomerID, and OrderDate. We want to retrieve all orders made by customers from a specific city.

SELECT OrderID, OrderDate FROM Orders WHERE CustomerID IN (SELECT CustomerID FROM Customers WHERE City = 'New York');

 

In this example, the subquery (SELECT CustomerID FROM Customers WHERE City = 'New York') returns all CustomerIDs of customers from New York. The outer query then retrieves the OrderIDs and OrderDates of orders where the CustomerID matches any of those returned by the subquery. This query will return all orders made by customers from New York.

Performance Optimization

Performance optimization in SQL is crucial for ensuring that your database queries run efficiently, especially as the size and complexity of your data grow. Here are several strategies and techniques to optimize SQL performance: Indexing Create Indexes : Primary Key and Unique Indexes : These are automatically indexed. Ensure that your tables have primary keys and unique constraints where applicable. Foreign Keys : Index foreign key columns to speed up join operations. Composite Indexes : Use these when queries filter on multiple columns. The order of columns in the index should match the order in the query conditions. Avoid Over-Indexing:  Too many indexes can slow down write operations (INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE). Only index columns that are frequently used in WHERE clauses, JOIN conditions, and as sorting keys. Query Optimization Use SELECT Statements Efficiently : SELECT Only Necessary Columns : Avoid using SELECT * ; specify only ...
