             Summary: Create secondary primary index
                 Key: ASTERIXDB-2016
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ASTERIXDB-2016
             Project: Apache AsterixDB
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: IDX - Indexes
            Reporter: Ali Alsuliman


This change is regarding introducing secondary primary index. The secondary 
primary index is a secondary B-Tree that is built on the primary keys of the 
dataset but only stores the {PK} instead of the regular case {SK,PK}. The 
purpose of this secondary is to optimize queries like SELECT count(*). Instead 
of scanning the primary index, the secondary primary index would be used to 
answer such queries.
