Thanks for the pointer, James. I looked quickly but didn't find it :)

Let us know if that explains it, Alexey.

See https://phoenix.apache.org/secondary_indexing.html#Index_Usage. We get this question a fair amount. We have an FAQ, here [1], but it's not a very complete answer (as it doesn't mention hinting or local indexes), so it'd be good if it was updated.

Thanks,
James

    IIRC, Phoenix will only choose to use an index when all columns are
    covered (either the index is on the columns or the columns are
    explicitly configured to be covered in the DDL).

        Hi.

        Let’s say I have a table CREATE TABLE test (id integer NOT NULL
        PRIMARY KEY,
        name VARCHAR, description VARCHAR)
        with local index CREATE LOCAL INDEX ix_test_name ON test(name)

        For the query SELECT * FROM test WHERE name = 'a'
        it’s all right, Phoenix uses index.

        But for the query SELECT * FROM test WHERE name = 'a' AND
        description = 'b'
        It makes full scan over the table. Is there any way to make
        Phoenix use
        index in such queries(when one field is in index and another is
        not),
        without including another field into the index ?

        I use HDP 2.6.2 and Phoenix 4.7.

        Best regards,
        Alexey
