question: db2 LUW V8 UNION ALL with table function month() have bad
query performance
Env:
db2 LUW V8 + FP14
Problem :
We have history data from 2005/01/01 ~ 2007/05/xx in single big
table,
we try separate this big table into twelve tables and create a view
to join these 12 tables with UNION ALL .
after query the view, we get bad query performance than query single
big table.
follow our scenario :
create table sales_01(
sales_date date not null,
prod_id integer,
city_id integer,
channel_id integer,
revenue decimal(20,2) ) ;
create table sales_02 like sales_01 ;
create table sales_03 like sales_01 ;
create table sales like sales_01 ;
create table sales_05 like sales_01 ;
create table sales_06 like sales_01 ;
create table sales_07 like sales_01 ;
create table sales_08 like sales_01 ;
create table sales_09 like sales_01 ;
create table sales_10 like sales_01 ;
create table sales_11 like sales_01 ;
create table sales_12 like sales_01 ;
alter table sales_01 add constraint date_01
check(month(sales_date)=1);
alter table sales_02 add constraint date_02
check(month(sales_date)=2);
alter table sales_03 add constraint date_03
check(month(sales_date)=3);
alter table sales_04 add constraint date_04
check(month(sales_date)=4);
alter table sales_05 add constraint date_05
check(month(sales_date)=5);
alter table sales_06 add constraint date_06
check(month(sales_date)=6);
alter table sales_07 add constraint date_07
check(month(sales_date)=7);
alter table sales_08 add constraint date_08
check(month(sales_date)=8);
alter table sales_09 add constraint date_09
check(month(sales_date)=9);
alter table sales_10 add constraint date_10
check(month(sales_date)=10);
alter table sales_11 add constraint date_11
check(month(sales_date)=11);
alter table sales_12 add constraint date_12
check(month(sales_date)=12);
create view all_sales as

our currently solution is re-create view similar follow :
create view all_sales_05 as
(
select * from sales_01
where sales_date between '2007-01-01' and '2007-01-31' or
sales_date between '2006-01-01' and '2006-01-31' or
sales_date between '2005-01-01' and '2005-01-31'
union all
select * from sales_02
where sales_date between '2007-02-01' and '2007-02-28'
union all
select * from sales_03
where sales_date between '2007-03-01' and '2007-03-31'
union all
select * from sales_04
where sales_date between '2007-04-01' and '2007-04-30'
union all
select * from sales_05
where sales_date between '2007-05-01' and '2007-05-31'
union all
select * from sales_06
where sales_date between '2007-06-01' and '2007-06-30'
union all
select * from sales_07
where sales_date between '2007-07-01' and '2007-07-31'
union all
select * from sales_08
where sales_date between '2007-08-01' and '2007-08-31'
union all
select * from sales_09
where sales_date between '2007-09-01' and '2007-09-30'
union all
select * from sales_10
where sales_date between '2007-10-01' and '2007-10-31'
union all
select * from sales_11

union all

but our data is continue growing and this view is need to maintain
every year for DBA,
did anyone know other simple solution can maintain this kind data ?
Thanks
