[Directions Magazine - Press Releases] Informix Spatial Data Technology: Update and Positioning ...: IDS - in particular the upcoming IDS 11 release - does include great support for analyzing the performance and load characteristics of a given database, including identifying queries that can benefit from additional indexes, but they are part of a more general vocabulary of administrative interfaces, not called out as a separate "advisor." For spatial indexes specifically, DB2 has a Spatial Index Advisor to help configure the Grid index. The Informix R-tree, however, requires no configuration (other than the usual storage specifications that are available for all tables and indexes) and has no tuning "knobs." IDS generally requires much less tuning than other database servers (this is what makes it so powerful as a zero-administration, "hidden" database, integrated with a packaged solution), and this is true for the spatial capabilities as well.
