USE credit
-- The credit database is a sample database. Unzip the CreditDB.zip file 
-- for a complete set of installation scripts. Read the 1stReadMe.txt 
-- for information on how to create and setup this database.
go
-- A typical and expensive (large worktable - per user) query might be
-- an aggregate like the following:

SELECT c.member_no AS MemberNo, 
	sum(c.charge_amt) AS TotalSales
FROM dbo.charge AS c
GROUP BY c.member_no
go

-- So next we'll create a view...
-- You always start with a view BUT there are a few requirements.
-- The first requirement - of ALL views that will be indexed - is to 
-- create the view with SCHEMABINDING. This forces table stability
-- meaning that all columns on which the view is based cannot be 
-- schematically altered nor can the table be dropped. 
-- To use SCHEMABINDING you must use TWO PART naming for all
-- objects referenced in the view and all objects must exist in the 
-- same database.

/* *******************************************************************
** NOTE: This can have other benefits in that it can protect your tables 
** from being -- dropped accidentally. See the TSQLTutor quick tip, 
** InstantDoc ID #22073 for more information on saving production 
** tables from production dbas.
******************************************************************* */

-- Additionally, on views that contain aggregates, you must include 
-- COUNT_BIG() if you plan to create indexes on the view. 

-- DROP VIEW dbo.SumOfAllChargesByMember

CREATE VIEW dbo.SumOfAllChargesByMember
	WITH SCHEMABINDING  -- required if you plan to index this view!

	COUNT_BIG(*) AS NumberOfCharges, -- required when GROUP BY is in an indexed view!
	SUM(c.charge_amt) AS TotalSales

go
SELECT * FROM dbo.SumOfAllChargesByMember
go
-- Notice the plan. (Showplan Tab in results)
-- When a group by is accessed, the aggregate needs to be 
-- computed on the fly!
-- For each user running the aggregate a worktable will
-- be created. This causes a load on tempdb and cpu - 
-- ultimately it means poor performance when there are
-- numerous users running similar queries.

-- Next we'll track the IOs and time. Clear cache for comparable
-- results. Be cautious not to do this on busy and/or production
-- systems.

-- Next CREATE the Index on the View to Materialize the data
-- fyi - Oracle has a similar feature called Materialized Views, 
-- we call them Indexed Views. They are in fact just another

-- benefit from them!

-- BUT Indexed Views are only accessible AND used
-- on Developer Edition and Enterprise Edition! Check your version
-- with the query at the top of this script and use the WITH (NOEXPAND)
-- to force the index on the view in any other edition!
go

-- BUT on Enterprise/Developer it only gets better!!
-- Any query the can benefit from the index WILL!
-- THIS Query will also use the indexed view (yeah!)
