URL Alias RedirectManagement
Changes to Aliasing
Architectural changes• Before: aliasing engine was based on materialized
views, which were precomputed as the underlying data was modified
• Now: Two primary tables: mapping table and rules table
Most immediate impact• eSync performance – only moving rules (10-50% of
previous cost was moving aliases)• Search – primary URL (quicklink) is indexed
