Can you use a filter by a not indexed column?
Using a filter by a not indexed column, the number of rows have an expressive reduction but the cost doesn’t. So, I decided to create a index ID_FILIAL column. Extracting query again… Could anyone tell me why ? Thanks. and we said… There are many reasons why this may be the case. But first:
How can I tell if my table is not indexed?
It will tell you if your table isn’t indexed ideally for the query you want to run. It depends! These will not rely on the index, because the index is not useful. Click on “display estimated execution plan” to confirm potential index usage. in Oracle databases this is called a Composite Index ( 12g docs but valid for earlier versions)
Can a query be answered by reading the index?
When you do the count (*), it understands it does not need to access the table hence the query can be entirely answered by reading the equally tiny index — so it does. Using the rule based optimizer, which does not consider the size of tables, we can get the less optimal plan of “index range scan, table access by rowid”.
Can a query skip columns in an index?
Edit2: Oracle 11g and later now has an option that will allow it to skip columns in an index. so a query on A,B and D might still use the index The index will be used, yes. It’s fairly smart about which indexes will produce a more optimal query plan, and it should have no trouble with that.
How to find indexes on a table in Oracle?

How are indexes created and updated in a database?
If you create one or more indexes before loading data, then the database must update every index as each row is inserted. Creating an index on a table that already has data requires sort space. Some sort space comes from memory allocated for the index creator. The amount for each user is determined by the initialization parameter SORT_AREA_SIZE.
Why do you need an Oracle database index?
Just as the index in this manual helps you locate information faster than if there were no index, an Oracle Database index provides a faster access path to table data. You can use indexes without rewriting any queries. Your results are the same, but you see them more quickly.
