Index partitions

Index partitioning is the grouping of object index information into separate full-text indexes in accordance with object property values. For example, for a string partition property such as Origin, all objects that have email as the Origin property value are indexed in the same index. Index partitioning potentially improves CBR query performance by reducing the amount of index information that must be searched.

Restriction: The potential query performance gain applies only when the partition property is referenced in the WHERE clause of the CBR query. For more information, see CBR query syntax introduction.

A property must satisfy the following requirements to be a partition property:

Also, the settability of the property must be SETTABLE_ONLY_ON_CREATE for all indexable classes that possess the property. Settability is a metadata property on the class property definition. (The settability of the property in the property template can differ.)

A partition property does not have to be a CBR-enabled property.

A maximum of two partition properties can be set for an object store: one date property and one string property.
