I have a SQL query where I am making UNION of two select statements. The table that I am joining in each select statement have indexes defined for those tables.

Now the UNION of the two select statements again in enclosed in an inline view , from which I fetching my final field values.

The select statements inside the inline view returns huge number of row (like 50 million rows).

The whole query fails with time out.

How can I optimize this query further?

Is there a way to pass Oracle Hints so that Oracle uses indexes?
