If you cannot attend this year's OpenWorld event in San Francisco then make sure you checkout our Oracle Day 2012 programme. This is a series of roadshows touring major cities around the globe and each one promises to be a great event.

Oracle Day 2012 features learning tracks and sessions tailored for accelerating your business in today’s environment. Oracle simplifies IT by investing in best-of-breed technologies at every layer of the technology stack and engineering them to work together so you can focus on driving your business forward.

As with OpenWorld, Big Data is going to be a huge part of these events and the sessions we have scheduled will reinforce the message that Oracle is different because only Oracle offers the complete end-to-end solution. There two main big data session:

  • "BRIGHT FUTURE: ANALYTICS AND BIG DATA POWERING INNOVATION - See More, Act Faster: Drive better business outcomes with big data & analytics".

I think it is fair to say that every business understands that the potential for big data is huge, but the key question is: Are you ready? These two sessions which form a key part of the Oracle Day programme will examine the explosive pace of technological in the area of big data and analytics and show how you can embrace these exciting new technologies to grab a rare opportunity to outpace your competitors and outperform your stakeholder expectations by being among the first to embrace new solutions that will enable your business to see more and act faster.

My query just got faster - brief introduction to 12.2 in-memory cursor duration temp tables

By -

Image courtesy of wikipedia This post covers one of the new SQL performance enhancements that we incorporated into Database 12c Release 2 . All of these enhancements are completely automatic, i.e. transparent to the calling app/developer code/query. These features are enabled by default because who doesn’t want their queries running faster with zero code changes? So in this post I am going to focus on the new In-Memory “cursor duration” temporary table  feature. Let’s start by looking at cursor duration temp tables… Above image courtesy of wikimedia.org What is a cursor duration temp table? This is a feature that has been around for quite a long time. Cursor duration temporary tables (CDTs) are used to materialize intermediate results of a query to improve performance or to support complex multi step query execution. The following types of queries commonly use cursor duration temp tables: WITH Clause and parallel recursive WITH Grouping Sets S...

SQL Pattern Matching Deep Dive - Part 1

There has been quite a lot of interest in the new 12c MATCH_RECOGNIZE feature for SQL pattern matching. Therefore, I thought now would be the perfect time to start a series of quick deep dive posts that explain how SQL pattern matching works. Over the coming weeks I will cover the following topics in a series of posts. This is the start of a series of posts based on a presentation that I put together for the recent annual  BIWA conferenc e at Oracle HQ. The Oracle BI, DW and Analytics user community always puts on a great conference and this year was the best yet. You can download any or all of the presentations from this year’s conference by following this link . My pattern matching deep dive presentation started life about a year ago as a post covering some of the new keywords in the explain plan that are linked to pattern matching, see here . It has now expanded to cover a much wider range of topics. Firstly, a huge vote of thanks to my development team (Lei Sheng and Chun-Chie...

SQL Pattern Matching Deep Dive - Part 6, state machines

By -

The obvious way to start this particular post is to pose a couple of simple questions: what is a state machine and why should you care? In general I would say that you don't need to know about or care about state machines. That's the beauty of using SQL for pattern matching. The MATCH_RECOGNIZE clause encapsulates all the deep technical modelling and processing that has to be performed to run pattern matching on a data set. However, there are times when it is useful, probably vital, that you understand what is going on behind the scenes and one of the most obvious situations is when backtracking happens. Therefore, the content covered in this post is a going to be a gently lead-in into my next post where I am going to discuss the concept of “backtracking”  and the dreaded  ORA-30009 error. Let’s start our voyage of discovery…when you attempt to run a SQL statement containing a MATCH_RECOGNIZE clause during the compilation phase we generate a finite state machine ba...
