Differentiate nested loop, hash join and merge join.



Differentiate nested loop, hash join and merge join...

Answer / Kum Anshu Gupta

[Nested Loop Join: This join type performs a full scan of one table for each row in another table. It is generally slower but simpler to implement than other join types.nHash Join: This join type creates a hash table from one input and scans the other input, looking up rows based on their hash value. Hash joins can be efficient when both inputs are small or when the data is already sorted by the join key.nMerge Join: This join type sorts both inputs by the join key, then merges them together in sorted order. Merge joins are efficient for large datasets when the join key is well-distributed and the sorting can be performed efficiently.]
