Top 10, no – make that 11, things about Oracle Database 11g Release 1Thomas Kytehttp://asktom.oracle.com

E.F. Codd - 1970

First RDBMS: Version 2 June 1979

• FIRST Commercial SQL RDBMS• Impressive First SQL

• Joins, Subqueries • Outer Joins, Connect By

• A Simple Server• No transactions, ‘Limited’ Reliability

• Portability from the Start• Written in Fortran• But multi-platform – PDP11, Dec VAX

Oracle7.3 February 1996

• Partitioned Views• Bitmapped Indexes• Asynchronous read ahead for

table scans• Standby Database• Deferred transaction recovery

on instance startup• Updatable Join View• SQLDBA no longer shipped.• Index rebuilds• DBV introduced• Context Option• PL/SQL - UTL_FILE

Spatial Data Option Tablespaces changes -

Coalesce, Temporary Permanent,

Trigger compilation, debug Unlimited extents on STORAGE

#1 Encrypted

Tablespaces

Encrypted Tablespaces

• Oracle Database 10g Release 2 introduced column encryption• Could not range scan• Primary/foreign key issues

• Tablespace encryption Removes those limitations

• Many encryption algorithms• 3DES168• AES128• AES192• AES256

#3 Standby

Just got better

Standby Database

• Logical Standby was…• Limited in type support• But was always open for business

• Physical Standby was…• Easy• But considered “not useful day to day”

Standby Database

• Logical Standby has…• XMLType support• DBMS_RLS & DBMS_FGA support• TDE support

Active Data Guard: Develop & Test on Standby DB

• Use physical standby databasefor development & testing• Preserves zero data loss in test/dev mode

• Flashback DB to back-outchanges & use as standby

ProductionDatabase

Standby Database

Developers,Testers

Eliminates cost of idle DR system

Active Data Guard: Report & Backup from Standby DB

• Offload reporting to standby• Simultaneously available for recovery

• Offload backups to standby• Complete database and fast incremental

backups

ProductionDatabase

Standby Database

Reporting

Backups

Improves performance on production database

Active Data Guard – More than a Standby

Simultaneous readand recovery

High ROI

Automated

Disaster and performance protection

Use daily in testingand production

Recoverymode only

Low ROI

Manual intensive

Disasterprotection only

Used in disaster only

#4 Real

Application

Testing

Real Application Testing –Database Replay

• Recreate actual production database workload

• Capture production workload incl. concurrency

• Replay workload in test with production timing

• Analyze & fix issues before production

• RANGE(order_date)• Foreign key order_id

• Partitioning key inherited through PK-FK relationship

• Avoids redundant storage, maintenance of order_date

New “INTERVAL” partitioning

• Automatically creates a new partition when data outside the existing range is first inserted • E.g., monthly partitions, automatic

new partition first day of the month

• Composite partitioning: interval, interval-list, interval-hash, and interval-range

• Automates partition management

#11 OLTP Table

Compression

• Oracle 9i compresses data only during bulk load; useful for DW and ILM

• Oracle 11g compresses w/ inserts, updates

• Trade some cpu for disk & i/o efficiency

• Compress large application tables

• Transaction processing, data warehousing

• Compress all data types: structured, unstructured

• Savings cascade to all db copies: test, dev, standby, mirrors, archiving, backup, etc.
