RE: skip scan index
Stephane, The queries will almost always include data from the data blocks in addition to the index information. The only query I can think of where that would not be true would be a simple count of orders by date. I'm beginning to think, based on this discussion and others we've had here where it's been proven that a full table scan is more efficient than an index lookup plus data block read, that perhaps NO index would be best. We are talking row counts in the (at most) 10's of thousands, not millions. I wish it were millions of rows, that would mean the store site was making money :) Rachel --- Stephane Faroult <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Rachel, > >You are right about 'skip scan' being a way to scan the index > rather than something else.

Title: RE: skip scan index Rachel, Skip scan index is not a index type, it is a index scan type. Maybe the developer should re-read the relevant portion of the manual.

RE: skip scan index
Mark, thanks, interesting article. But I'm still getting the feeling that the index skip scan is helpful only when you don't want to create a secondary index on columns that are not the left-most column. since I believe that we will be doing a LOT of queries by order date as well, I'm not sure that the benefits of defaulting to index skip scan outweigh the benefits of just having the second index.

Re: skip scan index
I tried it and what it does is, essentially, a fast full index scan on the remaining columns of the index. To resolve the query, oracle does a full sequential scan on the index instead on the table. If your index is one third size of the table, you saved quite a few IOs but don't expect anything like search on unique key performance.

Re: skip scan index
Hi Rachel, Correct, "Skip Scan Index" is not a type of index but a method whereby Oracle can eliminate the need to visit leaf nodes by determining whether the leading column(s) have changed by sussing out only the branch nodes. It's possibly useful in situations where previously Oracle would not consider a concatenated index if the leading column of the index is unknown whereas now the optimizer might determine that sufficient leaf nodes can be avoided for the index to be of benefit. It's a kinda improved version of the full index scan (or not so full if you know what I mean), However this requires the leading column to have *low* cardinality, low enough for the same repeated column from one leaf node to extent across all values of it's neighbouring leaf node. If the leading column changes from one leaf node to the next, then that leaf node must be at least visited (although subsequent inspection of the index values may enable Oracle to "pull out early" from having to read all index values, if a subsequent change in the leading column rules out all remaining entries). A quick (and nasty) formula would be to consider the ratio of leaf nodes to distinct values (LN/DV). The higher the ratio the better with any value somewhat greater than 1 giving a skip scan index path a chance with the number representing an approximate number of leaf nodes that could be "skipped" per leading index value. This obviously assumes evenish distribution of leading column(s) index values. However, getting back to your actual situation, if table access is only to be made via the order date or by order date and order id (and not necessarily by order id only), then you may find a single index order date || order id would meet all your requirements.

RE: skip scan index
I have doubt about the real advantages of index-skip-scan operation. Someone please clarify my doubts. 1. Its more like multiple indexes for unique values of the leading column, won't it be logically equivalent to scanning as many indexes as the number of distinct values of the leading column? If this is the case, until the row size is large, won't it be advisable to use a full-table scan rather than multiple index scans? 2. The real advantage will be in case the leading column has less number of unique values. If that is the case would it not be advisable not to have a index on that column at all?

RE: skip scan index
Rachel, You are right about 'skip scan' being a way to scan the index rather than something else. In fact, it's an improvement on a full index scan. IMHO, since you say that the volume is not that big, there is no such thing as giving it a try, and possibly comparing it to a full scan. An index scan (skip or not skip) makes sense if the index is much smaller than the table. If there is no enormous difference, and if your query requires other columns than the ones in the index, the cost of scanning the index plus fetching data blocks (especially if the clustering factor is low) may well be higher that the cost of scanning the table in the first place - when I say 'cost', read 'elapsed time' more than any obscure CBO cooking recipe. I would naturally tend to consider either two indices or none at all.

I, at the risk of seeming heretical - but hey I am an economics grad and was an accountant so I'm comfortable with that - find this unhelpful. The objective 'I have the following resources available to me - how can I best use them?' sounds correct to me. Your alternative question ' How many resources do I need to deliver the outcome x - changing how I provide x is not an option' sounds like a recipe for waste and inefficiency. Consider that Connor's excellent choose_a_hit_ratio script essentially asks 'what resources do I need for the following outcome?' and then consumes them. > I still haven't seen an honest comparison of SQL Server vs. > Oracle vs. DB2 vs. Informix vs. SyBase vs. MySQL that I can trust.

uploade using pl/sql gateway, ias
applogies for posting this in the DBA forum... list, i'm uploading files from my client browser to the database using the pl/sql gateway (mod pl/sql) on ias. Everything is working, but i cannot find the procedure which actually uploads the file!!! the upload procedure is simply.. a procedure that dosnt do anything, it's jsut called !! PROCEDURE upload_doc(name IN owa.vc_arr) IS BEGIN htp.p('uploaded'); END; now i hv made the name of the documents as a PK in the document table.. and when uploading the same document again, i want to display an eror... but where to put that pl/sql code to display the error i hv tried writing the expection in the above procedure.. but seems like this procedure is called AFTER the file is magically uploaded in the DB !!
