Re: [HACKERS] k-neighbourhood search in databases
Wow, custom solution for 2008 still much faster Denali 2011 solution. Also, what's about not spatial data types ? In our approach, we can provide knn for any datatype, which has GiST index and distance method.

I don't understand how does your question connected with my statement :) Slow distance calculation affects gist-based ordered heap output as well as seqscan output from heap, but in the first case you need to calculate just a few distances (something like height of gist tree), while in the naive way one have to calculate n^2 distances.

In our approach, we can provide knn for any datatype, which has GiST index and distance method. There are a number of workarounds (custom data types, mainly) that can be done in SQL Server, but the spatial datatypes themselves are .NET datatypes that ship with SQL Server and I'm pretty sure the methods will only work with the spatial types. The other types are the usual primitives that we all know and love and won't respond to .NET method invocation in the database. -- Jeremiah Peschka Microsoft SQL Server MVP MCITP: Database Developer, DBA Oleg On Fri, 8 Apr 2011, Jeremiah Peschka wrote: On 4/8/11 5:21 AM, Oleg Bartunov wrote: Hi there, I'm interesting if other databases provides built-in effective knn search ?

Re: [HACKERS] k-neighbourhood search in databases
hello ... i have put some research into that some time ago and as far as i have seen there is a 99% chance that no other database can do it the way we do it. it seems nobody comes even close to it (especially not in the flexibility-arena). oracle: disgusting workaround ... http://www.orafaq.com/usenet/comp.databases.oracle.misc/2005/11/03/0083.htm db2: disgusting workaround (no server side code it seems) sybase: disgusting workaround (no serverside code it seems) microsoft: there seems to be something coming out (or just out) but i have not seen anything working yet. regards, hans On Apr 8, 2011, at 2:21 PM, Oleg Bartunov wrote: Hi there, I'm interesting if other databases provides built-in effective knn search ?

Re: [HACKERS] k-neighbourhood search in databases
Hans, thanks a lot. I've heard about Oracle Spatial, but I don't know if it's knn is just syntactic sugar for workarounds.
