An anti-join finds every row of a table that has no matching row in a second table, a semi-join finds every row that has at least one matching row, without pulling that table's columns into the result.

Full text search is one of the areas where the SQL standard deliberately prescribes very little, and every database has developed its own proprietary solution. This article compares the full text search implementations of PostgreSQL, MySQL, and SQL Server, shows indexing and relevance ranking with concrete examples, and outlines when dedicated search engines like Elasticsearch make more sense than full text search directly in the database.
