Allow at backup time possibility to order data in tables ---------------------------------------------------------
Key: CORE-3668 URL: http://tracker.firebirdsql.org/browse/CORE-3668 Project: Firebird Core Issue Type: New Feature Components: GBAK Reporter: Karol Bieniaszewski Hi, is possible to see feature to order at backup or restore process (i suppose at backup this will be simpler to implement but i do not know internal FB work) ordering data in pages for table in some way example invoices in normal work you store new invoices for many clients and after 4 years you have e.g. 10 000 000 invoices data stored in table look like table INVOICES database page 1 client 1 .... client 2 .. client 3 .. .. database page 2 client 4 client 5 ... database page X client 1 .. client 3 .. client 2 .. ... and now we do select invoices for "client 1" what happend? server locate data for one client from many pages - and disc usage is very very big i think that all records are on different pages for e.g. "client 1" an hard drive must move head as many times as is count of invoices for client will be good to see something like this (or other solution - the best will be ordering data in pages for running database) when we can post some script code at backup time like gbak 127.0.0.1:d:\baza\bazaX.fdb -order_table "INVOICES" -order_by "CLIENT_ID ASC" after that data in table INVOICES will be look like database page 1 client 1 .... client 1 .. client 1 .. .. database page 2 client 1 client 1 client 1 ... database page X client 2 .. client 2 .. client 2 .. ... //this is correlated but not the same to my CORE-2708 -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://tracker.firebirdsql.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ All the data continuously generated in your IT infrastructure contains a definitive record of customers, application performance, security threats, fraudulent activity, and more.
