Abstract

To support emerging database applications, object-relational databases leverage the mature relational database technology and allow users to introduce application-specific types and methods. Tables in a database may now contain such objects as geographical shapes, images, and text documents. To realize the full potential of object-relational databases, efficient querying and searching of user-defined objects must be supported. This paper presents a high level framework for indexing of user-defined types with user-defined predicates. It is orthogonal to the low level access methods that are supported. It is unique in providing direct user control over the transformation from a user-defined type into an abstract domain of index values, the generation of search keys of a user-defined predicate with bound search arguments, and the execution of a user-defined predicate. The high level framework has been implemented in IBM DB2 Universal Database. Its generality, usability, and performance have been demonstrated in different application domains, where indices on user-defined objects can be fully integrated with SQL queries and exploited by the query compiler.
