Oracle

Tuning of SQL code is generally cheaper than changing the data model. Physical and configuration tuning involves a search for bottlenecks that often points to SQL code or data model issues. Building an appropriate data model and writing properly performing SQL code can give 100%+ performance improvement. Physical and configuration tuning often gives at most a 25% performance increase.

Gavin Powell shows that the central theme of Oracle10gR2 Performance Tuning is four-fold: denormalize data models to fit applications; tune SQL code according to both the data model and the application in relation to scalability; create a well-proportioned physical architecture at the time of initial Oracle installation; and most important, mix skill sets to obtain the best results.

Reviews for Oracle Performance Tuning for 10gR2

The inspiring story of the shy Catholic academic turned liberal lawyer who became the first woman president of Ireland and who took on the entrenched and backward-looking Irish establishment to fight for a more liberal, pluralist Ireland. Today, shaken by what she witnessed on her visits to famine and war-torn Africa, she is the UN's Commissioner for Human Rights and one of the world's most high-profile women. (Kirkus UK)
