RE: Oracle Text (ConText/InterMedia) and realtime updates

So, I fire up a Catalog Index on a column with an associated column in the index set (for ordering the results) and it comes back 10-12 times faster than the Context Index. The problem is that the result sets weren't the same. Upon investigating, I found out that catalog index searching
("catsearch") doesn't support wildcards, which we need. Bummer!

Oh well, back to contexts. Thanks for your input!

I would suggest researching an Autonomous Transaction fired from the trigger to get around the commit executed by CTX_DDL.SYNC_INDEX. Another approach I would pursue is to evaluate the use of Catalog Indexes
(8.1.7). If your requirements fit within the catalog index limitations
(more like an Intermedia Text-lite) then you are in luck since they are
transactional, hence no need for periodic synchronization. HTH
