I am using the following query which I found from a fragmanet of code
by itzik ben-gan to assign a common group id for group of records in my
case which have similar SSN and first Name and Last Name. if the SSN is
the same it should also check the first name and last name of the
record. Becuase records have more than three AKA names, I need to check
all the possibilities of first name last name combination to verify the
records are the same.
This code works fine and can assign group numbers for all the rows.
I am trying this code on a database of 65,000 rows. It's taking around
20 minute to complete. but I'll have to run the same code on
800,000,000 rows.
It will take years to finish.
even if the query is optimized to run in 1 second for 65,000 rows, it
will take more than 4 hours to run on the 800,000,000 row. This where I
realized I am in the "wrong jungle".
1. is there any other feasible and faster way to do this? very
important issue.
2. while assigning group number, it doesn't give sequential numbers. It
skips some of the numbers( group Number 1,2 5,9....) just curiouse(
not very important)
SELECT c1.fname, c1.lname, c1.ssn , c3.tu_id,
(SELECT 1 + count(*)
FROM distFLS AS c2
WHERE c2.ssn < c1.ssn
or (c2.ssn = c1.ssn and (substring(c2.fname,1,1) =
substring(c1.fname,1,1) or substring(c2.lname,1,1) =
substring(c1.lname,1,1)
or substring(c2.fname,1,1) =
substring(c1.lname,1,1) or substring(c2.lname,1,1) =
substring(c1.fname,1,1))
)) AS grp_num
into tmp_FLS
FROM distFLS AS c1
JOIN tu_people_data AS c3
ON (c1.ssn = c3.ssn and
c1.fname = c3.fname and
c1.lname= c3.lname)
GO
distinct firstname, lastname and SSN table from the tu_people_data.
I created this table to increase the query performance.
CREATE TABLE [distFLS] (
[fname] [varchar] (32) COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NULL ,
[lname] [varchar] (32) COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NULL ,
[ssn] [int] NULL
) ON [PRIMARY]
GO
CREATE TABLE [TU_People_Data] (
[tu_id] [bigint] NOT NULL ,
[count_id] [int] NOT NULL ,
[fname] [varchar] (32) COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NULL ,
[lname] [varchar] (32) COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NULL ,
[ssn] [int] NULL ,
CONSTRAINT [PK_tu_bulk_people] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
(
[tu_id],
[count_id]
) ON [PRIMARY]
) ON [PRIMARY]
GO
sample data
there is a column count_id after the tu_id and before fname(tu_id and
count_id are primary keys)
tu_id fname lname SSN
