Can MS SQL support full-text indexing for a view that connects (joins or unions) multiple databases?
Yes, absolutely. Each index will be queried individually and the results will be combined by the engine.
For example, if you’ve got:
And you have a view that includes both fields from both tables in both databases, it’ll work fine when you query that view. From SQL Server’s perspective, it doesn’t matter whether they’re in the same database or not.
If that doesn’t match your scenario, try posting more detail about your challenges. Thanks!
