Hi,
thanks for the answer.
the pb is that the fact table do have mods for "old" data.
so the current scheme implies to truncate partitions and recreate them, and
copy from ods to dm, etc which is better than millions (tens of) delete and
vacuuming.
and so, the partitioning scheme is based on day s data. so the 1800+.
the other pb we do have is the very long planning time for most request.
was 120 sec in r11, down to 60 sec in 12.
vs an exec time around 4 sec. Looks like the number of indexes is of
paramount impact.
Can you take me to any doc about optimizing the index scheme for a fact
table with 40 dimensions ?
thanks
regards,
