Re: Encoded Vector Indexes

["David Morris" <dmorris@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Brad,

EVIs may help if your dynamic SQL is performing selections, especially or'ed 
selections.  
I would look at running the database monitor and gathering statistics on the 
kinds of 
statements being run.  After you know what is being run, you can build indexes, 
including 
EVIs that help those selections.  There are software products that do this, one 
is from 
Centerfield Technology.  This can save you a lot of time, but the cost is up 
there.

Has anyone played with EVIs?  They look interesting and may be a good use
for web applications that can sort/select by many different fields or
anything using dynamic SQL.

Just looking for opinions.

Brad
