MySQL index
MySQL index is a data structure used to improve database query performance. It is created on one or more columns in a database table to help the database system quickly locate and retrieve data. Indexes can be compared to the table of contents of a book. They provide a way to quickly access data without scanning the entire table. By properly creating indexes, you can speed up queries and improve database performance.

Are mysql indexes used automatically?The mysql index can be used automatically, and the user can also force it to be used. MYSQL uses the index in two ways after creating the index: one is that the query optimizer of the database automatically determines whether to use it; the other is that the user can force the use of the index when writing SQL statements.
