MySQL 8 新特性之Invisible Indexes
背景
索引是把双刃剑,在提升查询速度的同时会减慢DML的操作。毕竟,索引的维护需要一定的成本。所以,对于索引,要加上该加的,删除无用的。前者是加法,后者是减法。但在实际工作中,大家似乎更热衷于前者,而很少进行后者。究其原因,在于后者,难。难的不是操作本身,而是如何确认一个索引是无用的。
如何确认无用索引
在不可见索引出现之前,大家可以通过sys.schema_unused_indexes来确定无用索引。在MySQL 5.6中,即使没有sys库,也可通过该视图的基表来进行查询。
mysql> show create table sys.schema_unused_indexes\G *************************** 1. row *************************** View: schema_unused_indexes Create View: CREATE ALGORITHM=MERGE DEFINER=`mysql.sys`@`localhost` SQL SECURITY INVOKER VIEW `sys`.`schema_unused_indexes` ( `object_schema`,`object_name`,`index_name`) AS select `t`.`OBJECT_SCHEMA` AS `object_schema`,`t`.`OBJECT_NAME` AS `object_name`,`t`.`INDEX_NAME` AS `index_name` from (`performance_schema`.`table_io_waits_summary_by_index_usage` `t` join `information_schema`.`STATISTICS` `s` on(((`t`.`OBJECT_SCHEMA` = convert(`s`.`TABLE_SCHEMA` using utf8mb4)) and (`t`.`OBJECT_NAME` = convert(`s`.`TABLE_NAME` using utf8mb4)) and (convert(`t`.`INDEX_NAME` using utf8) = `s`.`INDEX_NAME`)))) where ((`t`.`INDEX_NAME` is not null) and (`t`.`COUNT_STAR` = 0) and (`t`.`OBJECT_SCHEMA` <> 'mysql') and (`t`.`INDEX_NAME` <> 'PRIMARY') and (`s`.`NON_UNIQUE` = 1) and (`s`.`SEQ_IN_INDEX` = 1)) order by `t`.`OBJECT_SCHEMA`,`t`.`OBJECT_NAME`character_set_client: utf8mb4 collation_connection: utf8mb4_0900_ai_ci 1 row in set, 1 warning (0.00 sec)
但这种方式也有不足,
1. 如果实例发生重启,performance_schema中的数据就会清零。
2. 如果基于上面的查询删除了索引,查询性能突然变差,怎么办?
不可见索引的出现,可有效弥补上述不足。将index设置为invisible,会导致优化器在选择执行计划时,自动忽略该索引,即便使用了FORCE INDEX。
当然,这个是由optimizer_switch变量中use_invisible_indexes选项决定的,默认为off。如果想看一个查询在索引调整前后执行计划的差别,可在会话级别调整use_invisible_indexes的值,如,
mysql> show create table slowtech.t1\G *************************** 1. row *************************** Table: t1 Create Table: CREATE TABLE `t1` ( `id` int(11) NOT NULL, `name` varchar(10) DEFAULT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (`id`), KEY `idx_name` (`name`) /*!80000 INVISIBLE */ ) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8mb4 COLLATE=utf8mb4_0900_ai_ci 1 row in set (0.00 sec) mysql> explain select * from slowtech.t1 where name='a'; +----+-------------+-------+------------+------+---------------+------+---------+------+------+----------+-------------+ | id | select_type | table | partitions | type | possible_keys | key | key_len | ref | rows | filtered | Extra | +----+-------------+-------+------------+------+---------------+------+---------+------+------+----------+-------------+ | 1 | SIMPLE | t1 | NULL | ALL | NULL | NULL | NULL | NULL | 6 | 16.67 | Using where | +----+-------------+-------+------------+------+---------------+------+---------+------+------+----------+-------------+ 1 row in set, 1 warning (0.00 sec) mysql> set session optimizer_switch="use_invisible_indexes=on"; Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec) mysql> explain select * from slowtech.t1 where name='a'; +----+-------------+-------+------------+------+---------------+----------+---------+-------+------+----------+-------------+ | id | select_type | table | partitions | type | possible_keys | key | key_len | ref | rows | filtered | Extra | +----+-------------+-------+------------+------+---------------+----------+---------+-------+------+----------+-------------+ | 1 | SIMPLE | t1 | NULL | ref | idx_name | idx_name | 43 | const | 1 | 100.00 | Using index | +----+-------------+-------+------------+------+---------------+----------+---------+-------+------+----------+-------------+ 1 row in set, 1 warning (0.00 sec)
不可见索引的常见操作
create table t1(id int primary key,name varchar(10),index idx_name (name) invisible); alter table t1 alter index idx_name visible; alter table t1 alter index idx_name invisible;
如何查看哪些索引不可见
mysql> select table_schema,table_name,index_name,column_name,is_visible from information_schema.statistics where is_visible='no'; +--------------+------------+------------+-------------+------------+ | TABLE_SCHEMA | TABLE_NAME | INDEX_NAME | COLUMN_NAME | IS_VISIBLE | +--------------+------------+------------+-------------+------------+ | slowtech | t1 | idx_name | name | NO | +--------------+------------+------------+-------------+------------+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec)
注意
1. 主键索引不可被设置为invisible。
