Indexed Views in OLTPs?

I'm familiar with SQL Server Indexed Views (or Oracle Materialized Views), we use them in our OLAP applications. They have the really cool feature of being able to usurp an execution plan and remap it to the indexed view w/out having to change existing code. IE. Let's say I had a SPROC that was a really expensive join. SELECT [SOME ...

Re-indexing large table - how screwed am I?

I have a 1 TB, 600m row, table which has a misguided choice of indexed columns, specifically a clustered index on the primary key column which is never used in a select query.

Editing 8bpp indexed Bitmaps

hi, i'm trying to edit the pixels of a 8bpp. Since this PixelFormat is indexed i'm aware that it uses a Color Table to map the pixel values.

But, changing each value when accessing the 8bpp bitmap results in some random rgb colors even...
