算算这个ke_len
key_len : 显示了mysql在索引里使用的字节数,通过这个值可以算出具体使用了索引中的哪些列。
【字符串】
【数值类型】
【时间类型】
如果字段允许为 NULL,需要1字节记录是否为 NULL
索引最大长度是768字节,当字符串过长时,mysql会做一个类似左前缀索引的处理,将前半部分的字符提取出来做索引
name
varchar(24) —> 3 * 24 + 2 = 74 , 用了联合索引中的name .

key_len 变成了 78 ?
第二个是int , int 占 4个字节 , 74 + 4 = 78 ,这个SQL用了联合索引中的 name + age

用了联合所以中的 name
如果索引了多列,要遵守最左前缀法则 , 指的是查询从索引的最左前列开始并且不跳过索引中的列。

不符合 最左前缀
user where : 使用 where 语句来处理结果,并且查询的列未被索引覆盖

结合索引那个B+Tree , 特征 排好序
left 函数,MYSQL并没有做优化 ,left(name,2) 在那棵B+Tree上并没有,肯定不会走索引。
看看函数的操作
加个索引
alter table employees add index idx_hire_time(hire_time) using btree;

key_len = 78 (74 + 4 ) 走了 idx_name_age_position
(name
,age
,position
) 中的 name 和 age
为什么呢?
脑海中找到那个B+Tree
name 是相同的, 所以第二列 age 肯定是有序的, 而age这里取的是大于, age是大于, 第三列没办法保证有序。 如果age是等于,那可以,第三列有序。 上面这个图不是很合适,不要被误导了,放上去仅仅是为了让读者对B+树有个轮廓。

继续回想那个索引B+Tree , % 不在前面 意味着%前面的字符串固定, 那在树中的就是有序的,当然可以走索引
key_len = 74 ,可以推导出 走了 联合索引中的name
【问题:解决like’%字符串%'索引不被使用的方法?】
A: 使用覆盖索引,查询字段必须是建立覆盖索引字段

B: 如果不能使用覆盖索引则可能需要借助搜索引擎 ,Es等
用它查询时,mysql不一定使用索引,mysql内部优化器会根据检索比例、表大小等多个因素整体评 估是否使用索引,详见范围查询优化
增加索引
alter table employees add index idx_age(age) using BTREE;
mysql> explain select * from employees where age>=1 and age<=2000;

没走索引原因:mysql内部优化器会根据检索比例、表大小等多个因素整体评估是否使用索引。比如这个例子,可能是由于单次数据量查询过大导致优化器最终选择不走索引
优化方法: 可以将大的范围拆分成多个小范围
