EXPLAIN

Description

The EXPLAIN statement is used to provide logical/physical plans for an input statement. By default, this clause provides information about a physical plan only.

Syntax

EXPLAIN [ EXTENDED | CODEGEN | COST | FORMATTED ] statement

Parameters

Examples

-- Default Output
EXPLAIN select k, sum(v) from values (1, 2), (1, 3) t(k, v) group by k;
