Luckily, there&rsquo;s this <a href="https://15445.courses.cs.cmu.edu/fall2020/">highly rated database course</a> from CMU with quite a lot of learning materials, which provides me with a good chance to catch up on this area.</p> <p>My current plan is to go over indexing and transactions first and this particular post will be grouping some index related notes. The major reason behind this this is that I have recently just gain some high-level understanding of these 2 topics by reading <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Designing-Data-Intensive-Applications-Reliable-Maintainable/dp/1449373321">Designing Data-Intensive Applications</a> book, and going over them in more details again could facilitate my understanding of them.</p>
