Abstract: Techniques for compiled indexing and paginated reporting are described. Event messages, having sequential identifiers, are received and stored in a working table. The working table is renamed as a rollover table upon receiving a threshold number of the event messages and a new working table is created. A reference to the rollover table is stored in a management table. Summary data which summarizes each rollover table according to predetermined criteria is stored in a summary table with the reference to the corresponding rollover table. When a query to the event messages is received, a response to the query is generated based on the contents of the summary table and management table. The response may also include a predetermined quantity of event messages based on a dimension of a window of a graphical user interface of a client computer which issued the query.
