Join us for our MySQL Query Tuning Part 2: Indexing and EXPLAIN webinarWhy is a given query slow, what does the execution plan look like, how will JOINs be processed, is the query using the correct indexes, or is it creating a temporary table? You are welcome to sign up for our next webinar on September 27, where we’ll look at the EXPLAIN command and see how it can help us answer these questions. EXPLAIN is one of the most powerful tools at your disposal for understanding and troubleshooting troublesome database queries. We will also look into how to use database indexes to speed up queries. |  | |
