Streamlining SQL Index Management with Oracle’s Auto Index

In the bygone era of database management, sluggish SQL queries often led to suspicions directed at indexes. Manual creation, deletion, and rebuilding of indexes were labor-intensive tasks, even with the assistance of scripts. However, these generic index treatments applied to diverse databases were neither precise nor efficient. Considering the distinct workloads across databases, customized indexes became imperative for optimal performance.

Managing indexes manually posed challenges due to the generic nature of scripts, often leading to inefficiencies. Workloads varied between databases, necessitating a more context-specific approach to index creation and deletion. A solution was needed to automate the index lifecycle, tailoring it to each database’s workload.
