Chapter 10. Outside-the-Box Solutions to Seemingly Unsolvable Problems


It is not every question that deserves an answer.

”Publilius Syrus (a.k.a. Publius) Maxim 581

Computers are fast enough that they never have to be the bottleneck in a business process. When they turn out to be a bottleneck, solutions always exist. However, the solutions do not always take the form of answers to the question "How do I make this query return the same rows faster?" So far, this book has focused on answering that single question, and Chapter 9 described a few circumstances in which satisfactory answers to that question do not exist. This chapter takes the performance problem out of that self-imposed box and considers how to solve the rare query runtime problems that cannot be solved just by tuning a given statement.
