Rule Definition
A NOT LIKE operator in a WHERE clause does not allow to use database indexes and has an impact in terms of performance. It is better to invert the logical expression in data selection.
Remediation
If possible, avoid using the NOT operator in the WHERE clause because it is not supported by database indexes; invert the logical expression instead.
