Question

Which query would be more efficient?

1. SELECT *
FROM customer
WHERE city IN
(SELECT city
FROM employee
WHERE reports_to = 2);

2. SELECT customer.*
FROM customer
INNER JOIN employee
ON customer.city = employee.city
WHERE reports_to = 2;

 
 
  • Both would be the same as both use the same indices for the join and filter.

  • Query #1 would be more efficient as it is based on primary and foreign keys.

  • Query #2 would be more efficient as it is based on primary and foreign keys.

  • Query #1 would be more efficient as it is not using indexed columns.
