(forgot to answer this part) Certainly not in the near future, I'm afraid. It would require allowing a single index to exist over multiple tables. There has been discussions about this in the past and the general thoughts are that if you have a single index over all partitions, then it massively detracts from the advantages of partitioning. With partitioning, you can DETACH or DROP a partition and get rid of all the data quickly in a single metadata operation. If you have an index over all partitions then that operation is no longer a metadata-only operation. It suddenly needs to go and remove or invalidate all records pointing to the partition you want to detach/drop. David
