System and method for selectively preparing customized reports of query explain data

摘要

A method for selectively preparing customized reports of query explain data comprises selectively retrieving from the database subsets of the query explain data for the at least one query statement; formatting the subsets for display to a user; displaying within a report customization window one or more controls for selectively designating subsets of the query explain data for the at least one query statement to be included in the report; and in response to selection of the one or more controls, generating a report that includes the designated subsets of the query explain data for the at least one query statement.
