Where we use PPI in real time??? What is the disadvantages of PPI?..

Answer / yuvaevergreen

PPI arranges the rows in a data block using the value that
we mention in ddl. Range processing would be faster.
Basically rowid would not be used instead value would be used.


create table emp
(
emp char(10),
hiredate date
)
upi(emp)
partition by range_n
(hiredate between date '2000-10-10' and date '2010-10-10'
each interval '1' year);
