Omnidex is a supplemental indexing system that can be used to enhance data retrieval from flat files and relational databases such as SQL Server. Oracle, and MySQL as well as any ODBC compliant database via the generic ODBC Database interface.

Omnidex provides retrieval capabilities beyond traditional retrieval.

Lots of complex criteria very quickly
Text searches – words/values within a column
Active Counts/Count Engine – the best/fast count engine
Powersearch – fuzzy search

Omnidex is a lightweight but powerful indexing system.

Omnidex works by specifying indexes on database columns or fields in files using the OdxAdmin Windows based program and storing the specification in an XML file. The indexes can then be syncronized with the underlying data using the OdxAdmin program.

Applications can then utilize the Omnidex indexes for very fast and flexible retrieval using either an ODBC, JDBC, or a stored procedureal interface.

This section outlines the differences between version 5.x and previous Omnidex versions.
