مثال لانشاء INDEX
CREATE INDEX AHLY_TEAM ON EMP(ENAME,SAL,HIREDATE);
فائدته سرعه الحصول على البيانات من الداتا بيز
مع ملاحظه انه تم عمله على الاعمده
ENAME,SAL,HIREDATE الموجوده فى جدول EMP

شكرا لك بس لسة ما فهمت

CREATE INDEX : يستخدم هذا الامر لانشاء index
AHLY_TEAM : أسم index
ON EMP : الجدول المطبق عليه index
ENAME,SAL,HIREDATE : أسماء الاعمده الموجوده فى جدول emp

ممكن اعرف متى استخدم INDEX

What is an Index?
An index is a performance-tuning method of allowing faster retrieval of records. An index creates an entry for each value that appears in the indexed columns. By default, Oracle creates B-tree indexes.



Create an Index
The syntax for creating a index is:

CREATE [uNIQUE] INDEX index_name
ON table_name (column1, column2, . column_n)
[ COMPUTE STATISTICS ];

UNIQUE indicates that the combination of values in the indexed columns must be unique.

COMPUTE STATISTICS tells Oracle to collect statistics during the creation of the index. The statistics are then used by the optimizer to choose a "plan of execution" when SQL statements are executed.



For example:

CREATE INDEX supplier_idx
ON supplier (supplier_name);

In this example, we've created an index on the supplier table called supplier_idx. It consists of only one field - the supplier_name field.



We could also create an index with more than one field as in the example below:

CREATE INDEX supplier_idx
ON supplier (supplier_name, city);



We could also choose to collect statistics upon creation of the index as follows:

CREATE INDEX supplier_idx
ON supplier (supplier_name, city)
COMPUTE STATISTICS;



Create a Function-Based Index
In Oracle, you are not restricted to creating indexes on only columns. You can create function-based indexes.

The syntax for creating a function-based index is:

CREATE [uNIQUE] INDEX index_name
ON table_name (function1, function2, . function_n)
[ COMPUTE STATISTICS ];



For example:

CREATE INDEX supplier_idx
ON supplier (UPPER(supplier_name));

In this example, we've created an index based on the uppercase evaluation of the supplier_name field.

However, to be sure that the Oracle optimizer uses this index when executing your SQL statements, be sure that UPPER(supplier_name) does not evaluate to a NULL value. To ensure this, add UPPER(supplier_name) IS NOT NULL to your WHERE clause as follows:

SELECT supplier_id, supplier_name, UPPER(supplier_name)
FROM supplier
WHERE UPPER(supplier_name) IS NOT NULL
ORDER BY UPPER(supplier_name);



Rename an Index
The syntax for renaming an index is:

ALTER INDEX index_name
RENAME TO new_index_name;



For example:

ALTER INDEX supplier_idx
RENAME TO supplier_index_name;

In this example, we're renaming the index called supplier_idx to supplier_index_name.



Collect Statistics on an Index
If you forgot to collect statistics on the index when you first created it or you want to update the statistics, you can always use the ALTER INDEX command to collect statistics at a later date.

The syntax for collecting statistics on an index is:

ALTER INDEX index_name
REBUILD COMPUTE STATISTICS;



For example:

ALTER INDEX supplier_idx
REBUILD COMPUTE STATISTICS;

In this example, we're collecting statistics for the index called supplier_idx.



Drop an Index
The syntax for dropping an index is:

DROP INDEX index_name;



For example:

DROP INDEX supplier_idx;

In this example, we're dropping an index called supplier_idx
