Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Partitioning question
I am new to the world of partitioning. 816 on W2K. In a white paper on
metalink "How to Implement Partitioning in Oracle Versions 8 and 8i " it
states that "The RULE-based optimizer does not take the partitioning of
tables and
indexes into account."
My question is - if your application is still rule based is there any value
to partitioning? Some of the tables are over 30 million rows and 5G. If my
understanding is correct I wouldn't see any performance improvement but
would make maintenance simpler.
