MySQL表中具有相同字段的两个索引

例如,我们有表：

CREATE TABLE `my_tbl` (
 `id` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,`id_type` int(11) NOT NULL,`date` date NOT NULL,`other_fields` varchar(200) CHaraCTER SET latin1 NOT NULL,PRIMARY KEY (`id`),KEY `id_type` (`id_type`),KEY `type_date` (`id_type`,`date`) USING BTREE
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8

Ther是两个索引：id_type和id_type,date.

据我所知,如果我们有两个字段的索引,我们可以将它用作第一个字段的单个索引.

我可以删除索引id_type而不会丢失性能吗？

更新：问这个问题引起注意,有时不同索引中的同一个字段具有不同的基数.

最佳答案

MysqL 5.7.9 – 删除id_type索引并没有什么区别.多列索引(type_date)适用于两个查询.

解释查询输出：

MysqL> explain SELECT id_type,date FROM my_tbl WHERE id_type='some';
+----+-------------+--------+------------+------+---------------+-----------+---------+-------+------+----------+-------------+
| id | select_type | table  | partitions | type | possible_keys | key       | key_len | ref   | rows | filtered | Extra       |
