Sort operator in execution plans
Execution plans can tell us if and where a query used an internal sorting operation. Internal sorting is often required when using an operator in a query that checks for and removes duplicate rows.
You are given an execution plan of a query that returns all cities listed in the Earthquakes
database. The query appends queries from the Nations
and Cities
tables. Use the following execution plan to determine if the appending operator used is UNION
or UNION ALL
