CONFIGURE ZONE
ALTER INDEX ... CONFIGURE ZONE
is used to add, modify, reset, or remove replication zones for an index. To view details about existing replication zones, use SHOW ZONE CONFIGURATIONS
. For more information about replication zones, see Replication Controls.
This is an enterprise-only feature. Request a 30-day trial license to try it out.
You can use replication zones to control the number and location of replicas for specific sets of data, both when replicas are first added and when they are rebalanced to maintain cluster equilibrium.
For examples, see Replication Controls.
Required privileges
The user must be a member of the admin
role or have been granted CREATE
or ZONECONFIG
privileges. To configure system
objects, the user must be a member of the admin
role.
Parameters
Parameter | Description |
---|---|
variable |
The name of the replication zone variable to change. |
value |
The value of the replication zone variable to change. |
DISCARD |
Remove a replication zone. |
For usage, see Synopsis.
PARTITION BY
ALTER INDEX ... PARTITION BY
is used to partition, re-partition, or un-partition a secondary index. After defining partitions, CONFIGURE ZONE
is used to control the replication and placement of partitions.
This is an enterprise-only feature. Request a 30-day trial license to try it out.
Similar to indexes, partitions can improve query performance by limiting the numbers of rows that a query must scan. In the case of geo-partitioned data, partitioning can limit a query scan to data in a specific region. For examples, see Query partitions.
Most users should not need to use partitioning directly. Instead, they should use CockroachDB's built-in multi-region capabilities, which automatically handle geo-partitioning and other low-level details.
The primary key required for partitioning is different from the conventional primary key: The unique identifier in the primary key must be prefixed with all columns you want to partition and subpartition the table on, in the order in which you want to nest your subpartitions.
If the primary key in your existing table does not meet the requirements, you can change the primary key with ALTER TABLE ... ALTER PRIMARY KEY
.
For examples, see Define partitions.
Required privileges
The user must have the CREATE
privilege on the table.
Parameters
Parameter | Description |
---|---|
name_list |
List of columns you want to define partitions on (in the order they are defined in the primary key). |
list_partitions |
Name of list partition followed by the list of values to be included in the partition. |
range_partitions |
Name of range partition followed by the range of values to be included in the partition. |
For usage, see Synopsis.
RENAME TO
ALTER INDEX ... RENAME TO
changes the name of an index.
It is not possible to rename an index referenced by a view. For more details, see View Dependencies.
For examples, see Rename indexes.
Required privileges
The user must have the CREATE
privilege on the table.
Parameters
Parameter | Description |
---|---|
index_new_name |
The name you want to use for the index, which must be unique to its table and follow these identifier rules. |
For usage, see Synopsis.
SPLIT AT
ALTER INDEX ... SPLIT AT
forces a range split at a specified row in the index.
CockroachDB breaks data into ranges. By default, CockroachDB attempts to keep ranges below the default range size. To do this, the system will automatically split a range if it grows larger than this limit. For most use cases, this automatic range splitting is sufficient, and you should never need to worry about when or where the system decides to split ranges.
However, there are reasons why you may want to perform manual splits on the ranges that store tables or indexes:
When a table only consists of a single range, all writes and reads to the table will be served by that range's leaseholder. If a table only holds a small amount of data but is serving a large amount of traffic, load distribution can become unbalanced and a hot spot can occur. Splitting the table's ranges manually can allow the load on the table to be more evenly distributed across multiple nodes. For tables consisting of more than a few ranges, load will naturally be distributed across multiple nodes and this will not be a concern.
When a table is created, it will only consist of a single range. If you know that a new table will immediately receive significant write traffic, you may want to preemptively split the table based on the expected distribution of writes before applying the load. This can help avoid reduced workload performance that results when automatic splits are unable to keep up with write traffic and a hot spot occurs.
For examples, see Split and unsplit indexes.
Required privileges
The user must have the INSERT
privilege on the table or index.
Parameters
Parameter | Description |
---|---|
select_stmt |
A selection query that produces one or more rows at which to split the index. |
a_expr |
The expiration of the split enforcement on the index. This can be a DECIMAL , INTERVAL , TIMESTAMP , or TIMESTAMPZ . |
For usage, see Synopsis.
UNSPLIT AT
ALTER INDEX ... UNSPLIT AT
removes a split enforcement on a range split, at a specified row in the index.
Removing a split enforcement from a table or index ("unsplitting") allows CockroachDB to merge ranges as needed, to help improve your cluster's performance. For more information, see Range Merges.
For examples, see Split and unsplit indexes.
Required privileges
The user must have the INSERT
privilege on the table or index.
Parameters
Parameter | Description |
---|---|
select_stmt |
A selection query that produces one or more rows at which to unsplit an index. |
ALL |
Remove all split enforcements for an index. |
For usage, see Synopsis.
[NOT] VISIBLE
ALTER INDEX ... VISIBLE
and ALTER INDEX ... NOT VISIBLE
sets the visibility of an index. This determines whether the index is visible to the cost-based optimizer.
By default, indexes are visible. If NOT VISIBLE
, the index will not be used in queries unless it is specifically selected with an index hint or the property is overridden with the optimizer_use_not_visible_indexes
session variable.
This allows you to create an index and check for query plan changes without affecting production queries. For an example, see Set an index to be not visible.
Note the following considerations:
- Primary indexes must be visible.
- Indexes that are not visible are still used to enforce
UNIQUE
andFOREIGN KEY
constraints. - Indexes that are not visible are still used for foreign key cascades.
- When defining a unique constraint, the
NOT VISIBLE
syntax cannot be used to make the corresponding index not visible. Instead, useALTER INDEX
after creating the unique constraint.
For examples, see Set index visibility.
Aliases
In CockroachDB, the following are aliases for NOT VISIBLE
:
INVISIBLE

Create a replication zone for an index
The Cost-based Optimizer can take advantage of replication zones for secondary indexes when optimizing queries.
This is an enterprise-only feature. Request a 30-day trial license to try it out.
The secondary indexes on a table will automatically use the replication zone for the table. However, with an enterprise license, you can add distinct replication zones for secondary indexes.
To control replication for a specific secondary index, use the ALTER INDEX ... CONFIGURE ZONE
statement to define the relevant values (other values will be inherited from the parent zone).
To get the name of a secondary index, which you need for the CONFIGURE ZONE
statement, use the SHOW INDEX
or SHOW CREATE TABLE
statements.
> ALTER INDEX vehicles@vehicles_auto_index_fk_city_ref_users CONFIGURE ZONE USING num_replicas = 5, gc.ttlseconds = 100000;
CONFIGURE ZONE 1
> SHOW ZONE CONFIGURATION FROM INDEX vehicles@vehicles_auto_index_fk_city_ref_users;

Edit a replication zone
ALTER INDEX vehicles@vehicles_auto_index_fk_city_ref_users CONFIGURE ZONE USING range_min_bytes = 0, range_max_bytes = 90000, gc.ttlseconds = 89999, num_replicas = 4;
Remove a replication zone
When you discard a zone configuration, the objects it was applied to will then inherit a configuration from an object "the next level up"; e.g., if the object whose configuration is being discarded is a table, it will use its parent database's configuration.
You cannot DISCARD
any zone configurations on multi-region tables, indexes, or partitions if the multi-region abstractions created the zone configuration.
ALTER INDEX vehicles@vehicles_auto_index_fk_city_ref_users CONFIGURE ZONE DISCARD;
Define partitions
Define a list partition on an index
Suppose we have a table called students_by_list
, a secondary index on the table called name_idx
, and the primary key of the table is defined as (country, id)
. We can define partitions on the index by list:
ALTER INDEX students_by_list@name_idx PARTITION BY LIST (country) (
PARTITION north_america VALUES IN ('CA','US'),
PARTITION australia VALUES IN ('AU','NZ'),
PARTITION DEFAULT VALUES IN (default)
);
Define a range partition on an index
Suppose we have a table called students_by_range
, with a secondary index called name_idx
, and the primary key of the table is defined as (expected_graduation_date, id)
. We can define partitions on the index by range:
ALTER INDEX students_by_range@name_idx PARTITION BY RANGE (expected_graduation_date) (
PARTITION graduated VALUES FROM (MINVALUE) TO ('2017-08-15'),
PARTITION current VALUES FROM ('2017-08-15') TO (MAXVALUE)
);
Define subpartitions on an index
Suppose we have a table named students
, with a secondary index called name_idx
, and the primary key is defined as (country, expected_graduation_date, id)
. We can define partitions and subpartitions on the index:
ALTER INDEX students@name_idx PARTITION BY LIST (country) (
PARTITION australia VALUES IN ('AU','NZ') PARTITION BY RANGE (expected_graduation_date) (
PARTITION graduated_au VALUES FROM (MINVALUE) TO ('2017-08-15'),
PARTITION current_au VALUES FROM ('2017-08-15') TO (MAXVALUE)
),
PARTITION north_america VALUES IN ('US','CA') PARTITION BY RANGE (expected_graduation_date) (
PARTITION graduated_us VALUES FROM (MINVALUE) TO ('2017-08-15'),
PARTITION current_us VALUES FROM ('2017-08-15') TO (MAXVALUE)
)
);
Repartition an index
ALTER INDEX students_by_range@name_idx PARTITION BY RANGE (expected_graduation_date) (
PARTITION graduated VALUES FROM (MINVALUE) TO ('2018-08-15'),
PARTITION current VALUES FROM ('2018-08-15') TO (MAXVALUE)

Unsplit an index
Add a new secondary index to the rides
table, on the revenue
column, and then split the table ranges by secondary index values as described in Split an index.
To remove the split enforcements, run the following:
ALTER INDEX rides@revenue_idx UNSPLIT AT VALUES (25.00), (50.00), (75.00);
