Database Tuning

• Oracle RealWorld Performance Tuning!
• A very practical seminar designed to provide its participants
with a simple methodology and a clear understanding of the
Oracle tuning process.
• 1. How to best identify our problematic SQL.
• 2. The most powerful and actually useful tools for performance
tuning
• 3. Discuss real world examples of performance tuning issues
and their solutions!
• 4.We will also get to know some of the best Oracle 12c new
features for better performance.

• > Identifying the high load SQL statements
• GUI performance tools (OEM), AWR report, Oracle Tracing
• > Tools for retrieving execution plans and execution statistics
• Autotrace, DBMS_XPLAN, EXPLAIN PLAN FOR, Developers
Graphical tools
• > Understanding execution plans
• How to read execution plans? – What should we look for to
identify core issues?
• > Affecting execution plans to resolve performance issues
Hints, Optimizer statistics, Optimizer Parameters, re-writing the
SQL and more

• > Execution plan real time statistics – Moving from theory to
actual
• > Using SQL Monitoring and the “Gather plan statistics” hint
(View Actual values of the execution compared to the optimizer
estimated ones)
• > Oracle 12c enhancements to SQL Monitoring

• > Stabilizing a good plan for my query using SQL Plan Baselines
• > Adding a hint to my query without changing the SQL in my
code (Magic?)

Improved column defaults
SQL> create sequence s;
Sequence created.
SQL> create table my_table
2 ( x int
3 default s.nextval
4 primary key,
5 y varchar2(30)
6 );
Table created.
• > Sequences supported for columns
without a trigger!

• > We can now use an IDENTITY type!
•
• > Generates a sequence and associate that
sequence with the table.
create table my_Table
(x int generated as identity
primary key,
y varchar2(30));

create table t
(x int generated by default
as identity
(start with 42
increment by 1000 )
primary key,
y varchar2(30))
• > Complex identity values supported

Increased size limits
> VARCHARS can go up to 32K!
Set MAX_STRING_SIZE init.ora parameter to
EXTENDED.
Run @?/rdbms/admin/utl32k.sql
create table t ( x varchar(32767) );
>> Actually stored as LOB
>> In-row <= 4K, out of row > 4K…

Increased size limits
> But now you can use RPAD/LPAD/TRIM !
SQL> insert into my_tab values ( rpad('*',
32000,'*') );
1 row created.
SQL> select length(x) from my_tab;
LENGTH(X)
——————————————
32000
(previously string built-in functions would have been
able to return only 4,000 bytes)

Improved top-N queries
> New Row limiting clause for result set
pagination.
> Support for the ANSI-standard FETCH FIRST/
NEXT and OFFSET
create table t
as select * from all_objects;
create index t_idx on t(owner,object_name);

> Retrieve the first five rows after sorting by
OWNER and OBJECT_NAME
select owner, object_name, object_id
from t
order by owner, object_name
FETCH FIRST 5 ROWS ONLY;

> The optimizer is rewriting the query to use
analytics!

Temporary UNDO
> Previously:  
 
Temporary tablespace DML

(for read consistency)
UNDO TBS changes required REDO for crash

Permanent tables
Operations on temporary tables will
no longer generate redo.

Temporary UNDO
> Can be used with Active DataGuard!
Read-only replicated tables
Read / Write temporary table
(intermediate query results)

Temporary UNDO

New partitioning features
> Move a partition ONLINE!
(non-blocking DDL, allow DML)
alter table test_tbl move partition p1 ONLINE;

Transaction Guard
> For database developers.
> API that returns the outcome of the
last transaction.
> Provide protection for sensitive
transactions that are allowed to only
happen once.

Transaction Guard
> Without:

Transaction Guard
CallableStatement c = conn2.prepareCall(
"declare b1 boolean; b2 boolean; begin"
+"DBMS_APP_CONT.GET_LTXID_OUTCOME(?,b1,"
+"b2); ? := case when B1 then "
+"'COMMITTED' else 'UNCOMMITTED' end; "
+"end;");

Transaction Guard
> With:

Adaptive Execution Plans
> Before Oracle 12c, plans were fixed for the
first execution.
> Unexpected high row counts may make first plan
suboptimal.
> With 12, the Optimizer can now generate
plan + subplans. 
> Optimizer picks final plan based on cardinality
during first execution.
> “Changes its mind” in realtime!

Note

- this is an adaptive plan (rows marked '-' are inactive)
> STATISTICS COLLECTOR buffers the rows and able
to switch to HASH JOIN when cardinality becomes
higher than what was estimated.

Rejected!
Accepted!

Enhanced Statistics
> New histograms: Top, Hybrid. 
> New Dynamic Sampling:  
Dynamic Sampled statistics (now
Dynamic Statistics) can be reused.
 
If defined at 2 (which is the default) dynamics statistics will be
gathered if at leat one table in the query has no statistics.
If defined to 11 the database will use dynamic statistics
automatically when statistics are missing, statistics are stale,
statistics are insufficient.

Enhanced Statistics
> Automatically compute statistics
during loads (CATS).

Data Optimisation and ILM
> Oracle 12c creates “Heat Maps”  
- tracks and marks data at the row and block
level as it goes through life cycle changes. 
 
> Automatic Data Optimization works with the
Heat Map feature and allows us to create
policies.
> Automatic Data Optimization allows you to
create policies for data compression and data
movement, to implement storage tiers.

> Data can be:
Hot: the object is actively in Read/Write.
Warm: the object which is accessed in
reads only
Cold: the object is not participating in
any kind of activity.

SQL> alter session set heat_map=on;
SQL> select * from scott.emp;

statement using MATCH_RECOGNIZE
that allows us to identify patterns
across sequences of rows.

Any record, followed by one or more records in which the price of the stock goes
down, followed by one or more records in which the stock price increases.

PL/SQL enhancements.
> Define PL/SQL Subprograms in a
SQL Statement.
> Why would a developer want to copy
logic from a PL/SQL function into a
SQL statement?
To improve performance.
> No context switch to the PL/SQL
engine.

Pluggable Databases
A PDB is a self-contained, fully
functional Oracle Database, and
includes its own system, sysaux
and user tablespaces.

Pluggable Databases
> CDB: Similar to a conventional Oracle
database.
> Contains most of the working parts you will be already
familiar with (controlfiles, datafiles, undo, tempfiles, redo
logs etc.).
> Contains the data dictionary for those objects that are
owned by the root container and those that are visible to
all PDBs.

Pluggable Databases
> PDB: Contains information specific to itself.
> Made up of datafiles and tempfiles to handle it's own
objects: includes it's own data dictionary, containing
information about only those objects that are specific to
the PDB.

Pluggable Databases

Pluggable Databases
> Allows databases to be moved easily
> Allows quick patching and upgrading to future
versions.
A PDB can be unplugged from a 12.1 CBD and plugged
into a 12.2 CDB, effectively upgrading it in seconds.

Pluggable Databases
12.1.0.2
