Memory optimization using data aging in full text indexes

Abstract:

A framework for memory optimization of database indexes, and in particular for aging full-text index data, is described herein. In one embodiment, if, while a database table is aged, there are index tables associated with the database table, the associated index tables are automatically aged. This way, the system memory footprint will be reduced, leading to reduced cost as less system memory is required to perform remaining operations, and leading to increased performance as more system memory is available for other operations.
