Managing SQL Terminal Connections

Data Studio allows you to reuse an existing SQL Terminal connection or create a new SQL Terminal connection for execution plan and cost, visual explain plan, and operations in the resultset. By default, the SQL Terminal reuses the existing connection to perform these operations.

Use new connection when there are multiple queries queued for execution in existing connection as the queries are executed sequentially and there may be a delay. Always reuse existing connection while working on temp tables. Refer to the Editing Temporary Tables section to edit temp tables.
