I know the Secondary Index(s) is not here yet: It's in wish list and "planed"
I like to get some ideas (or information from the reliable source) about the incoming secondary index(s)
1st question: I noticed MS planed "secondary indexes": is that mean we can create as many indexes as we want on one table
2nd question: Current index is "PartitionKey+RowKey
", if above question is not true, will the secondary index be "RowKey+PartitionKey
" or we have a good chance that we can customize it?
I like to gain some ideas because I am currently design a table, since the data won't much from beginning, so I think I can wait for the secondary index feature without create multiple tables at this moment.
Please share you ideas or any source you have, thanks.
As a Windows Azure MVP I don't have any information about the secondary indexes in table service. If we do need more indexes in table service, but don't want use SQL Azure, (Not just because of the pricing...) then I would like to de-normalization my data, which split the same data into more than one table, with different row key as the indexes.
