what are the things that you consider while creating indexes
on partitioning tables?

Answer Posted / gautam choudhury

1) If the table partitioning column is a subset of the
index keys, use a local index. If this is the case, you are
done.

If this is not the case, continue to guideline 2.

2) If the index is unique, use a global index. If this is
the case, you are done. If this is not the case, continue
to

guideline 3.

3) If your priority is manageability, use a local index. If
this is the case, you are done. If this is not the case,

continue to guideline 4.

4) If the application is an OLTP one and users need quick
response times, use a global index. If the application is a
DSS one

and users are more interested in throughput, use a local
index.
