title: Bitmap Indices on MySQL DB
body: <p>I'm trying to design an OLAP DB in MySQL with the use of <strong>Bitmap Indices</strong>, however MySQL doesn't support Bitmap indices (as far as I know), so I have to build and maintain my own bitmap index.</p>
  
  <p>Could someone tell me if this will still bring any benefit to my application, like speeding up multidimensional range queries ? If so, which would be the best way to implement it ? </p>
