Abstract
This chapter presents some database-system internals concepts in preparation for studying database-system internals at a deeper level. I present more in-depth coverage of how queries are represented internally within the server and how queries are executed. I explore these topics from a more general viewpoint and then close the chapter with a discussion of how you can use the MySQL system to conduct your own experiments with the MySQL system internals. Last, I’ll introduce the database system’s internals experiment project.
