I know that a LIKE performs better than a SUBSTRING in a SQL WHERE clause. Is there a better option than a SUBSTRING for checking specific positions in a column?
Given MY_TABLE with MY_COLUMN defined as char(12) and this query:
Select *
From MY_TABLE
Where substring(MY_COLUMN, 5, 6) = '123456';
Is there an alternative to SUBSTRING that will perform better?
TIA
