Examples of query execution plan

You can write some queries using the users table and understand how query execution plan is generated.

Description of the users table:

CREATE TABLE users (
    id INTEGER,
    firstName STRING,
    lastName STRING,
    otherNames ARRAY(RECORD(first STRING, last STRING)),
    age INTEGER,
    income INTEGER,
    address JSON,
    connections ARRAY(INTEGER),
    expenses MAP(INTEGER),
PRIMARY KEY (id)
)

The following index has been created in the users table.

CREATE INDEX idx_state_city_income on Users(address.state as string,
      address.city as string, income)

Some examples of query execution plan :

• Example 1 : Using a covering index in a query plan with only index scans

• Example 2 : Using a covering index in a query plan with index scans and index predicates

• Example 3: Using a non-covering index in a query plan with index scans

• Example 4: Sort the data using a Covering index

• Example 5: Sort the data using a field not part of the index

• Example 6: Group the data using a Covering index

• Example 7: Group data with fields not part of the index
