背景
索引是把雙刃劍,在提升查詢速度的同時會減慢DML的操作。畢竟,索引的維護(hù)需要一定的成本。所以,對于索引,要加上該加的,刪除無用的。前者是加法,后者是減法。但在實際工作中,大家似乎更熱衷于前者,而很少進(jìn)行后者。究其原因,在于后者,難。難的不是操作本身,而是如何確認(rèn)一個索引是無用的。
如何確認(rèn)無用索引
在不可見索引出現(xiàn)之前,大家可以通過sys.schema_unused_indexes來確定無用索引。在MySQL 5.6中,即使沒有sys庫,也可通過該視圖的基表來進(jìn)行查詢。
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)
但這種方式也有不足,
1. 如果實例發(fā)生重啟,performance_schema中的數(shù)據(jù)就會清零。
2. 如果基于上面的查詢刪除了索引,查詢性能突然變差,怎么辦?
不可見索引的出現(xiàn),可有效彌補(bǔ)上述不足。將index設(shè)置為invisible,會導(dǎo)致優(yōu)化器在選擇執(zhí)行計劃時,自動忽略該索引,即便使用了FORCE INDEX。
當(dāng)然,這個是由optimizer_switch變量中use_invisible_indexes選項決定的,默認(rèn)為off。如果想看一個查詢在索引調(diào)整前后執(zhí)行計劃的差別,可在會話級別調(diào)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 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 row in set, 1 warning (0.00 sec)
不可見索引的常見操作
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見
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. 主鍵索引不可被設(shè)置為invisible。
