Description
There are three parts to tuning an Oracle database: data modeling, SQL code tuning and physical database configuration.
A data model
contains tables and relationships between tables. Tuning a data model involves normalization and de-normalization. Different approaches
are required depending on the application, such as OLTP or a Data Warehouse. Inappropriate database design can make SQL code impossible
to tune. Poor data modeling can have a most profound effect on database performance since all SQL code is constructed from the data model.
Poorly written SQL code is often a culprit of performance problems and is expensive to rectify. However, tuning of SQL code is generally
cheaper than changing the data model. SQL code tends to be contained inside independent blocks within applications or stored procedures.
Physical database tuning involves hardware resource usage, networking and various other Oracle things such as configuration and file
distribution. Physical configuration is often a culprit of poor performance where Oracle is installed with defaults, and never altered
by an expert.
Audience
Oracle users, Developers, Database Administrators, Consultants and Corporate professionals
