Abstract

A method can include receiving a request to execute a database command identifying a target table; identifying a plurality of rows to insert into the target table based in part on the database command; writing rows, from the plurality of rows, into a data page until the data page is full; determining, by an index thread manager, a number of threads to use for updating indexes defined for the target table; and upon determining the data page is full, updating, in parallel, the indexes defined for the target table using the number of threads.
