什么是BRIN索引以及如何使用_云原生数据库 PolarDB(PolarDB)-阿里云帮助中心

BRIN索引是块级索引，有别于B-TREE等索引，BRIN记录并不是以行号为单位记录索引明细，而是记录每个数据块或者每段连续的数据块的统计信息。因此BRIN索引空间占用特别的小，对数据写入、更新、删除的影响也很小。

操作符

应用场景

流式日志数据，按时间顺序不断的顺序插入。索引占用空间小，性能要求高。

准备工作

创建表及插入数据

CREATE TABLE t_brin (id int, info text, crt_time timestamp);
INSERT INTO t_brin SELECT generate_series(1,1000000), md5(random()::text), clock_timestamp();

查询数据

SELECT ctid,* FROM t_brin limit 3;

 ctid  | id | info                             | crt_time
 (0,1) |  1 | 81c3f4f603c0c17e45778b2dd2d72f4d | 2024-11-06 09:26:57.549121
 (0,2) |  2 | b4b77e95a1580480107b038776b3cc9c | 2024-11-06 09:26:57.551548
 (0,3) |  3 | 6ebf5ebdd3df3428c279de2d5c7aab9f | 2024-11-06 09:26:57.551558

创建索引

CREATE INDEX idx_t_brin_1 ON t_brin USING brin (id) WITH (pages_per_range=1);
CREATE INDEX idx_t_brin_2 ON t_brin USING brin (crt_time) WITH (pages_per_range=1);
CREATE INDEX idx_t_brin_3 ON t_brin(id);
CREATE INDEX idx_t_brin_4 ON t_brin(crt_time);

示例一

使用索引执行计划。

EXPLAIN (analyze, verbose,timing,costs, buffers) SELECT * FROM t_brin WHERE id BETWEEN 100 AND 200;

Index Scan using idx_t_brin_3 on public.t_brin  (cost=0.42..5.79 rows=107 width=45) (actual time=0.006..0.020 rows=101 loops=1)
  Output: id, info, crt_time
  Index Cond: ((t_brin.id >= 100) AND (t_brin.id <= 200))
  Buffers: shared hit=5 (main=5 vm=0 fsm=0)
Query Identifier: -5761088690410512151
Planning:
  Buffers: shared hit=40 (main=38 vm=2 fsm=0)
Planning Time: 0.232 ms
Execution Time: 0.045 ms

删除索引后，执行计划。

DROP INDEX idx_t_brin_3;

EXPLAIN (analyze,verbose,timing,costs,buffers) SELECT * FROM t_brin WHERE id BETWEEN 100 AND 200;

Bitmap Heap Scan on public.t_brin  (cost=37.83..241.69 rows=107 width=45) (actual time=1.333..1.351 rows=101 loops=1)
