Abstract

See full text

In one embodiment, a method includes selecting a plurality of indexes of a database table, receiving an indication of a set of index pairs in the plurality of indexes that are deemed to at least partially overlap, and determining a degree of overlap between the indexes of each index pair. The method further includes determining a suggested merge relationship between the indexes of each of the index pairs. The method also includes generating an index model comprising interconnected index objects. The interconnected index objects represent the indexes of the index pairs. Interconnections between the interconnected index objects reflect the suggested merge relationship between the indexes of each index pair. Moreover, the method includes outputting a graphical representation of the index model. Additionally, the method includes allowing a user to graphically select index pairs to merge in a system-determined order.
