RE: what is a reverse key index and it's real time us...
Reverse -key index is index that reverse the data of the being indexed column. For example if the column value contains LOVELY the reverse-key index will be YLEVOL.

This index very much useful where users issues the select command with where clause such as WHERE x 5 but it will not be useful for searching in range say WHERE x between 2 and 6.

Reverse key index optimises the Oracle performance in real application cluster environment.
