以前我有个想法，我只想对其中的某个或者某几个分区上创建索引，其他分区不想创建，在12C之前的版本，无论是Local还是Global index，都不能实现该需求，但是从ORACLE 12C开始引进了Partial Global/Local Indexes for Partitioned Tables，解决了该问题，可以在指定的分区上创建本地索引或者全局索引，主要语法是在表或者分区,子分区级别设置[INDEXING { ON | OFF }]

结论
通过测试，证明Partial Global/Local Indexes for Partitioned Tables确实能够实现对部分分区创建index。
1)如果查询条件确定的分区无index，那直接走全表扫描；
2)如果查询条件可以确定的分区范围内有index，会直接使用index(无论是Local还是GLobal)；
3)如果查询条件未确定分区范围(含index和无index分区情况)，那该sql会在有index分区使用index，在没有index区域走全表扫描

从ORACLE 12C开始允许在同一列上创建不同类型的index，用来做性能调优，不同类型的index主要包括（B*TREE vs BITMAP，Local vs Global)
