Query performance optimization is a critical aspect of database management, and PostgreSQL provides powerful tools to understand how queries are executed. We'll explore PostgreSQL's EXPLAIN command, its output structure, various scan methods, and how to interpret performance metrics.

Ever wondered what actually happens when you create an index in PostgreSQL? While we often think about indexes abstractly as "making queries faster," there's a fascinating world of file management, storage structures, and system catalogs working behind the scenes. Let's dive deep into how PostgreSQL manages index storage at the filesystem level.

Having established our foundation in index fundamentals, let's dive into the art and science of advanced indexing strategies. This is where the real performance optimization begins — it's not just about creating indexes, but about creating the right indexes for your specific use cases.

Every performance optimization journey in PostgreSQL begins with understanding indexes. While they might seem like a simple concept - "make queries faster" - the reality involves a fascinating interplay of data structures, storage mechanisms, and careful trade-offs.
