Subject Index creation
Author Robert martin
Hi


I have the following table

TableA
UniqueID (primarly Key)
FK1 (Foreign Key into another table)
FK2 (Foreign Key into another table)

We are not using Foreign keys in FB. I anticipate searching using
'WHERE FK1 = xx AND FK2 = xx) most of the time. However I will also be
doing searches on each FK field individually. Should I create one
composite index for FK1, FK2 or two individual indexs ?

FK1 should have a high selectivity, FK2 will have a low selectivity
(i.e. lots of duplicate entries for FK2 but not many for FK1).

This is a FB 2 database.

TIA
