Abstract

Some queries can be optimized; others can’t. This is due to the structure of the query itself, which in turn is due to the structure of the underlying data. “Sargable” is database-speak for <em> Search ARGument ABLE </em> . <sup> 1 </sup> A query is sargable if it <em> can </em> be optimized, e.g. by creating and using an index. It’s a good idea to write sargable queries.
