Join selection factor
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Join Selection Factor)
Within computing, author O'Connell defines join selection factor as "[t]he percentage (or fraction) of records in one file that will be joined with records of another file".[1] This can be calculated when two database tables are to be joined. It is primarily concerned with query optimization.
