CTEs can be thought of as alternatives to derived tables ( subquery ), views , and inline user-defined functions.
Queries can optionally return data from the locally connected server instance or from an entire grid with the same SQL. Informix version 14.10 introduced support for partial indexing where only a subset of the rows in a table are indexed and for multi-valued key indexes which support indexing the elements within multi-valued data types such as ...
