Abstract

Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to an approach for database query. According to the approach, a query for a group of data records is received. At least one index is created on at least one field of the data records and comprises index entries for storing and sorting respective values of the at least one field of the data records. It is determined if the query satisfies a predetermined condition. In response to the query satisfying the predetermined condition, a result of the query is determined by skipping at least a part of operations required by the query based on the at least one index.
