先來看一個栗子
EXPLAIN select * from employees where name > 'a';
如果用name索引查找數(shù)據(jù)需要遍歷name字段聯(lián)合索引樹，然后根據(jù)遍歷出來的主鍵值去主鍵索引樹里再去查出最終數(shù)據(jù)，成本比全表掃描還高。
可以用覆蓋索引優(yōu)化，這樣只需要遍歷name字段的聯(lián)合索引樹就可以拿到所有的結果。
EXPLAIN select name,age,position from employees where name > 'a';
可以看到通過select出的字段是覆蓋索引，MySQL底層使用了索引優(yōu)化。在看另一個case：
EXPLAIN select * from employees where name > 'zzz';
對于上面的這兩種 name>'a' 和 name>'zzz'的執(zhí)行結果， mysql最終是否選擇走索引或者一張表涉及多個索引， mysql最終如何選擇索引，可以通過trace工具來一查究竟，開啟trace工具會影響mysql性能，所以只能臨時分析sql使用，用完之后需要立即關閉。
SET SESSION optimizer_trace="enabled=on",end_markers_in_json=on; --開啟trace
SELECT * FROM employees WHERE name > 'a' ORDER BY position;
SELECT * FROM information_schema.OPTIMIZER_TRACE;

查看trace字段可知索引掃描的成本低于全表掃描的成本，所以MySQL最終選擇索引掃描。
