Optimizing Database Index Design and Calculating Dice Sum Probabilities with Dynamic Programming
Understanding InnoDB's indexing mechanism clarifies why lengthy fields are suboptimal as primary keys. Since secondary indexes reference the primary index, an oversized primary key inflates secondary indexes. Similar, using non-monotonic feilds as primary keys in InnoDB is inefficient because the data file is structured as a B+Tree. Non-monoton ...
