Case-Insensitive Search


The initial installment of Use The Index, Luke explained the anatomy and explained the "slow index" phenomenon. The last step was to create an index on LAST_NAME to avoid an unreasonable INDEX RANGE SCAN if the SUBSIDIARY_ID is present but not the EMPLOYEE_ID.

Today's installment introduces function based indexes to implement case-insensitive search.
