Summary<br />

• <strong>Query</strong> processing & optimization is the heart of a<br />

relational DBMS.<br />

• Heuristic optimization is more efficient to generate, but<br />

may not yield the optimal query evaluation plan.<br />

• Cost-based optimization relies on statistics gathered on<br />

the relations (the default in most DBMSs).<br />

• Until query optimization is perfected, query tuning will<br />

be a fact of life.<br />
