=== Schema vs Tablespace ===
 +
 +
A schema is a namespace - a logical thing. It is used to organize the names of database objects. It has nothing to do with the way the data is stored.
 +
 +
A tablespace is a physical thing. It's a container for data and has nothing to do with the logical organization of the database objects.

 +
 +
==== PL/SQL BIND VARIABLE ====
 +
SQL-Bindings können helfen, die Performance von dynamischem SQL ganz erheblich zu verbessern.
 +
 +
Die meisten Datenbankanbieter verfügen heutzutage über einen Ausführungsplan-Cache (Oracle nennt ihn Cursor-Cache),
 +
in dem zuvor analysierte SQL-Anweisungen gespeichert sind und deren Ausführungsplan (und -pläne) zur Wiederverwendung zwischengespeichert werden.
 +
Dies ist der Hauptgrund, warum Bind-Variablen so wichtig sind
 +
 +
=== PL/SQL CONTROL STRUCTURES ===
 +
- IF
 +
- CASE EXPRESSIONS
 +
- LOOPS
 +
  - Basic LOOP
 +
  - WHILE LOOP
 +
  - FOR LOOP
 +
  - NESTED LOOP
 +
  - LOOP LABELING
 +
- CONTINUE STATEMENT
 +
- GOTO
 +
 +
==== IF | IF-ELSE | IF-ELSE IF ====
 +
The IF statement allows you to either execute or skip a sequence of statements, depending on a condition.
 +
The IF statement has the three forms:
 +
 +
– IF THEN
 +
– IF THEN ELSE
 +
– IF THEN ELSIF
 +
 +
'''IF condition THEN'''
 +
'''statements;'''
 +
'''END IF;'''
 +
 +
==== LOOP ====
 +
The CASE statement chooses one sequence of statements to execute out of many possible sequences.
 +
The CASE statement has two types: simple CASE statement and searched CASE statement.
 +
Both types of the CASE statements support an optional ELSE clause.
 +
 +
'''Simple CASE statement'''
 +
'''Searched CASE statement'''
 +
 +
This structure is the most basic of all the loop constructs including FOR LOOP and WHILE LOOP.
 +
This basic LOOP statement consists of a LOOP keyword, a body of executable code, and the END LOOP keywords.
 +
 +
The LOOP statement executes the statements in its body and returns control to the top of the loop.
 +
Typically, the body of the loop contains at least one EXIT or EXIT WHEN statement for terminating the loop. Otherwise, the loop becomes an infinite loop.
 +
 +
The LOOP statement can have an optional label that appears at the beginning and the end of the statement.
 +
 +
'''<<label>> LOOP '''
 +
''' statements; '''
 +
'''END LOOP loop_label; '''
 +
 +
''' LOOP '''
 +
'''  EXIT; '''
 +
''' END LOOP;  '''
 +
 +
''' LOOP '''
 +
'''  IF condition THEN '''
 +
'''  EXIT; '''
 +
'''  END IF; '''
 +
''' END LOOP; '''
 +
 +
'''EXIT WHEN statement'''
 +
The EXIT WHEN statement has the following syntax:
 +
'''EXIT WHEN condition;'''
 +
 +
'''Nested loops'''
 +
It is possible to nest a LOOP statement within another LOOP statement as shown in the following example:
 +
 +
=== USING SQL INSIDE PL/SQL ===

 +
 +
==== DML OPERATIONS ====
 +
A Transaction start's with a DML and end with a commit,rollback or system error
 +
 +
- INSERT
 +
- UPDATE
 +
- DELETE
 +
- MERGE
 +
 +
'''CREATE TABLE testcopy as'''
 +
'''      select * from test;'''
 +
 +
There is no create or replace table in Oracle
 +
 +
'''DROP TABLE test;'''
 +
'''CREATE TABLE test ...;'''
 +
 +
==== SEQUENCES ====
 +
 +
Use of '''CURRVAL''' and '''NEXTVAL'''
 +
A sequence is a schema object that can generate unique sequential values.
 +
These values are often used for primary and unique keys.
 +
You can refer to sequence values in SQL statements with these pseudocolumns:
 +
 +
'''CURRVAL: Returns the current value of a sequence'''
 +
'''NEXTVAL: Increments the sequence and returns the next value'''
 +
In same statement increments only 1 time
 +
select 1.NEXTVAL 1.NEXTVAL 1.NEXTVAL ....
 +
 +
You must qualify CURRVAL and NEXTVAL with the name of the sequence:
 +
'''SELECT sequence_name.nextval|currval INTO variable|column'''
 +
'''FROM table_name|dual;'''
 +
 +
'''Variable|column :=sequence_name.nextval|currval'''

==== COMPOSITE DATA TYPES ====
 +
 +
===== Records =====
 +
Ein Datensatz mit Einem oder mehrere Werte
 +
Gleiche oder unterschiedliche Typen
 +
Datensatz innerhalb eines Datensatzes
 +
NULL by Default
 +
 +
1. Weg
 +
'''r_name TABLE_NAME%rowtype;'''
 +
 +
Vorteil:
 +
- Dynamische Typen-Zuweisung aus Tabelle
 +
- Durchführung einfacher DML Operationen
 +
 +
2. Weg
 +
- Einzelne Spalten Auswahl
 +
- Eigene Typen definition
 +
 +
'''type NAME is record ( NAME TYPE,'''
 +
'''                      NAME TYPE, '''
 +
'''                      []);'''
 +
 +
Alle typen ausser ref-cursors
 +

 +
 +
- '''Associative Arrays'''
 +
    Key can be strings
 +
 +
==== CURSORS ====
 +
Bei normaler SQL-Abfrage, wird nur ein Teil der Ergebnismenge, Algorithemn, Ausführungspläne, etc. im KOntextbereich gespeichert.
 +
 +
Cursors are pointers to the Data, in Memory or Disc
 +
 +
''2 Types of Cursors:''
 +
 +
'''Implicit Cursor'''(Create and administration by Database)
 +
  Bei jedem SELECT wird ein Impliziter Cursor erstellt
 +
 +
'''Explicit Cursor'''
 +
We can control cursors
 +
Explicit cursors are created by the programmers
 +
Collection vs cursor
 +
You cannot go back in cursors
 +
Abruf- und Speicheralgorithmus
 +
Gleichzeitiges laden von Ergebnismengen in den Speicher
 +
Operationen sind so viel schneller
 +
 +
Anordnung vom Server anhand der Ergebnismenge und der Speichersituation.
 +
Ein Select aus dem Speicher ist schneller als aus der Datenbank
 +
 +
Usage:
 +
- Declare

 +
 +
SQL Tuning is a continuous process
 +
You need to tune your queris
 +
- While creating
 +
- After the creating
 +
 +
When to decide tuning?
 +
- By checking the top consuming queries frequently
 +
- After any complaints of bad performance
 +
 +
The reasons of performance loss
 +
- Structural changes
 +
- Changes on the data volume
 +
- Application changes
 +
- Aged statistics
 +
- Database upgrades
 +
- Database parameter changes
 +
- Operating system changes
 +
- hardware changes
 +
 +
=== Blocks ===
 +
All data stored in blocks
 +
smallest unit of database storage
 +
2KB-32KB(default 8KB)
 +
stores row data or index data
 +
 +
Eigenschaften:
 +
- Block Header
 +
  Block Type Information
 +
  Table Information
 +
  Row Directory
 +
    ROWID(Like pointer?)
 +
- Rows
 +
Blocks in Blocks
 +
Jeder Block wird in eine bestimmte Stelle geschrieben
 +
 +
PCTFREE or PCTUSE parameters for the space size in blocks
 +
 +
Wenn nicht genug Platz, wird bei jedem update wahrscheinlich die Position geändert
 +
- Verringerte Leistung
 +
- IO-OPS werden langsamer
 +
- Schlecht für das Tuning
 +
- Verlangsamt die Indexes
 +
 +
Das lesen einer Zeile, von einer Tabelle aus einem Block, ist schneller als aus mehreren Blöcken
 +
 +
1. Row Header
 +
2. Column Data
 +
 +
- Row Overhead
 +
- Number of Columns
 +
- Cluster Key ID(if clustered)
 +
- ROWID of chained Row Pieces(if any)
 +
- Column Length
 +
- Column Value
 +
 +
Wenn die größe der Blocks in den Abfragen verringert wird, steigert man die Leistung
 +
 +
=== PGA | PROGRAM/PROCESS/PRIVATE GLOBAL AREA ===
 +
Private for each user
 +
 +
''4 Hauptspeicher Bereiche:''
 +
'''PGA'''
 +
Session AREA
 +
    - Session info for each user
 +
    - Session Variables, login info, session status, etc.
 +
Unnötige verbindungen vermeiden
 +
 +
'''PSA(Private SQL Area)'''
 +

 +
 +
=== SGA | SHARED/SYSTEM GLOBAL AREA ===
 +
Database buffer cache
 +
Redo log buffer
 +
Shared pool
 +
  - Data dictionary cache
 +
  - Result Cache
 +
  - other
 +
Large pool
 +
- I/O Buffer
 +
- Free memory
 +
- Response queue
 +
- Request queue
 +
JAVA pool
 +
Streams pool
 +
 +
Context switching between pl/sql engine and sql engine
 +
 +
=== SHARED POOL ===
 +
'''DATA DICTIONARY CACHE'''
 +
- Stores the definitions of the database object and permissions
 +
  - check if Data from query exists
 +
  - check your privileges
 +
 +
'''RESULT CACHE'''
 +
- stores result of common used queries
 +
- stores result of functin
 +
  - Bei wiederholter Abfrage wird aus dem RESULT CACHE gelesen
 +
  - Speicher die Abfrageergebnisse
 +
  - Speicher die Funktionsergebnisse
 +
 +
Erhöht die Leistung
 +
Wird von der Datenbank durchgeführt
 +
User kann anweisen Result Cache anweisen daten zu speichern
 +
 +
'''Library Cache'''
 +
- Stores the execution plans
 +
- Stores procedures, packages control structures
 +
  Oracle erstellt Ausführungspläne
 +
  Wie die Daten aus der Disc oder dem Puffer gelesen werden
 +
  Die Erstellung eines Ausführungsplans ist ein kostspieliger Vorgang
 +
  Die Verwendung eines Ausführungsplans für ähnliche Abfragen kann sehr effizient sein
 +
 +
'''OTHER AREAS'''
 +
 +
=== BUFFER CACHE ===
 +
'''Largest memory area of sga'''
 +
Stores the copies of the blocks read from the disc
 +
Available for all the users
 +
First check Buffer than Disc, for the data
 +
Check Disc only if blocks are missing
 +
Much faster than disc
 +
Size of the memory is endless
 +
Maintained with a complex algorithm
 +
Can't save all data in buffer cache
 +
 +
'''IN-MEMORY-DATABASES'''
 +
Stores the most recently used & most toched ones
 +
'''Database writer process''' handles the write operations to the disc
 +
Writes not one by one, writes all changed blocks in one step
 +
'''dirty blocks'''
 +
Stores Tabledata and Indexdata
 +
 +
Performance for same
 +
- queries
 +
- tables
 +
- indexes
 +
 +
=== REDO LOG BUFFER ===
 +
'''-> Log Writer Process(LGWR)'''
 +
'''-> Redo Log Entries'''
 +
'''-> Redo Log Files'''
 +
'''-> Server Process'''
 +
 +
Redo-Log-Files
 +
Oracle Guarantees Not to Lose Data
 +
- A Redo Log Entry is created when insert, update, delete, create, alter, drop occurs
 +
Create Redo Log entries for all changes
 +
Redo Log Entries has the changes made to the database
 +
They are used for recovery operatins
 +
You need privileges as a developer
 +
Redo Log Entries are Stored in the redo log buffer
 +
Starts every 3 sec and write to disc
 +
'''Redo Log buffer is a circular buffer'''
 +
'''Rollback is not done with redo log data'''
 +
Redo do recovery on rollback redo log files are deleted
 +
 +
=== UNDO ===
 +
What is rollback and recovery
 +
The original data stored into the memory(undo tablespace) is called as undo data
 +
buffer cache for the modifications
 +
undo data is not modified because
 +
  - Used for rollback operations
 +
  - Used for providing read consistency
 +
  - Used for providing flashback feature
 +
 +
'''BLOCKS > EXTENTS > SEGMENTS > TABLESPACE'''
 +
 +
=== DML PROCESS AND COMMIT ===
 +
Optimize Queries and DML's
 +
- Checks the Shared SQL AREA for similar statements to use
 +
- checks the data dictionary cache and checks if query is valid
 +
- Checks buffer cache & undo segements for the related data
 +
- Locks the related blocks
 +
- Makes the changes to the blocks in the buffer cache
 +
- the changes are applied to the redo log buffer before the buffer cache
 +
- the server returns the feedback for the changes
 +
 +
When the user commits:
 +
- System change number write to redo log files
 +
- the server creates a commitrecord with scn
 +
- the lgwr process write redo log entries in the redo log buffer to the redo log files
 +
- the dbwn writes the dirty blocks to the disc & unlocks the blocks
 +
- The server returns a feedback about the transaction completion
 +
 +
=== Automatic memory management===
 +
The size of each memory ara is important for the execution performance of your queries
 +
Wenn des Speicherbereich nicht ausreicht verringert das die performance
 +
It can manage both SGA & PGA memory
 +
In früheren versionen von oracle musste PGA manuell angegeben werden
 +
'''it is recommended to leave automatic memory management enabled to increase the performance'''
 +
will prefent out of memory errors
 +
 +
=== Oracle database storage architecture===
 +
- '''Storage''' = Discs
 +
- '''Control files''' storage the pyhsical structure information of the database(without no access to data)
 +
- '''Data Files''' - Stores data(Tables, procedures, application, data
 +
- '''Online Redo log files''': stores redo log entries
 +
- '''archived redo log files''' - online redo log files are constantly mover ehre
 +
- '''backup files''' - Stores the exact copy of the data files for disaster recovery
 +
- '''Parameter files''' - Stores the configuration data of the database instance
 +
- '''password file''' - Stores the passwords of the amin user(sysdba,sysoper,sysasm)
 +
- alert log & trace files - stores log message and errors occured in the database
 +
 +
Some Informations are for the dev's and some for the oracle support service
 +
 +
=== Logical and Physical Database structure ===
 +
- Blocks | smallest units of storage(2kb-32kb)
 +
- Extents | combination of several consecutive data blocks.
 +
  used for stroing secific type of info
 +
- segments | combination of several extents
 +
  used for storing some big data(tables,indexes, etc)
 +
  - data segments
 +
  - index segments
 +
  - undo segments
 +
  - temporary segments
 +
- tablespaces | combination of many segments. used for grouping the related data in one container
 +
  - Temporary Tabelspace
 +
    Stores teh temporary data of a session
 +
  - Permanent Tablespace
 +
    Stores the persistent schema objects
 +
 +
'''DB must have min 2 Tablespaces'''
 +
- System Tablespace
 +
- SYSAUX Tablespace
 +
DBA can create more Tablespaces
 +
 +
Check for Performance
 +
Set Tablespaces Online and Offline Status

Ein Schema ist eine Sammlung von Datenbankobjekten die einem Datenbankbenutzer gehören
 +
 +
=== PERFORMANCE TUNING BASICS ===
 +
SQL Tuning is a continuous process
 +
You nedd to tune your queries
 +
  - on creating
 +
  - After the creation
 +
  - On new Indexes created
 +
  - Change of data volume
 +
 +
When to decide tuning?
 +
  - checking the top consuming queries frequently
 +
  - after any complaints of bad performance
 +
 +
two goals in tuning:
 +
- reduce user response time, decreasing time between statement and response
 +
- Improve throughput
 +
 +
Knowledge and skills:
 +
- know your db architecture

=== BAD SQL ===
 +
Unnecessary:
 +
- parse time
 +
- I/O operations
 +
- CPU Time
 +
- waits
 +
 +
'''TIME on Wait(CPU) + Time on Execution = DB TIME'''
 +
The reason of a bad sql
 +
- bad design
 +
- poor coding
 +
- inefficient execution plan
 +
 +
=== Effective Schema Design ===
 +
- Assign data types as much as needed
 +
- datatypes with variable-length
 +
- check data-consistency problems
 +
- select exactly the same data type between parent-child-keys
 +
- don't use varchar2 for the most of the datatypes/strings/values
 +
 +
Enforce data integrity
 +
- correct PK and FK
 +
- use normalization well
 +
- smaller tables, faster join operation
 +
- select right table type
 +
  - heap-organized table
 +
  - Index Clustered tables
 +
  - Hash Clustered tables
 +
  - Index-Organized tables
 +
  - External tables
 +
  - and more
 +
- Create Clusters
 +
- use indexes often and select index type carefully
 +
- create good indexes methods
 +
- Create index-organized tables(IOT)
 +
 +
=== table partitioning ===
 +

=== SQL STATEMENT PROCESSED ===
 +
-> '''Syntax check'''
 +
-> '''Semantic check'''
 +
-> '''Privilege check'''
 +
-> '''Allocate private SQL AREA'''
 +
Existing shared SQL AREA
 +
NO-> '''HARDPARSE'''(Library cache miss)
 +
  -> Allocate shared sql area
 +
  -> optimization
 +
  -> row source generation
 +
YES-> '''SOFTPARSE'''
 +
-> EXECUTE STATEMENT
 +
 +
Softparse is faster, use for tuning
 +
- Hashwert in Libcache
 +
  - Key for the executionplan in shared sql area
 +
- executionplan is stored in shared library

  Plan is dynamic
 +
-> Query Transformer(Transform Query)
 +
-> Estimator(Query+estimates)
 +
^-> Plan Generator(Query plan to row source generation)
 +
 +
===Query Transformer===
 +
Query transforms the query into a better performing one but semantically equivalent of it
 +
If the transform isn't better, it use the original one
 +
Time restriction and old statistics may lead a wrong plan creation
 +
Or Expansion
 +
  Using or in the where clause will prevent index usage
 +
 
 +
'''SELECT * FROM ID WHERE ID = 1 OR ID = 2;'''
 +
Faster:
 +
'''SELECT * FROM ID WHERE ID = 1;'''
 +
'''UNION ALL'''
 +
'''SELECT * FROM ID WHERE ID = 2;'''
 +
 +
Subquery Unnesting
 +
Verschachtelte Abfrage in Join-Anweisung
 +
'''SELECT * FROM ID WHERE ID IN'''
 +
    '''(SELECT ID FROM CLIENTS)'''
 +
The otimizer transfomrs a nested query into a join statement
 +
SELECT ID,*
 +
FROM ID, CLIENTS
 +
WHERE ID.ID = CLIENTS.ID;
 +
 +
Complex VIEW
 +
 +
=== Selectivity & Cardinality ===
 +
Selectivity = NUMBER OF ROWS FROM QUERY / TOTAL NUMBERS OF THE ROWS
 +
Cardinality = Total numbers of rows x Selectivity
 +
 +
Why selectivity and cardinality is important?
 +
- SEL affects the estimates in I/O cost
 +
- SEL affects the sort cost
 +
- CAR is used to determine join, sort and filter costs
 +
- Incorrect SEL and CAR = incorrect plan cost estimation
 +
 +
=== COST IN DETAIL ===
 +
- Cost is the optimizer's best estimate of the numbers of I/O to execute statement
 +
- To estimate the cost, the estimator uses:
 +
  - Disk I/O
 +
  - CPU usage
 +
  - Memory usage
 +
 +
'''COST = SINGLE-BLOCK I/O COST + MULTI-BLOCK I/O COST + CPU COST / SINGLE-BLOCK READ TIME'''
 +
- SINGEL BLOCK READ TIME
 +
- MULTI BLOCK READ TIME
 +
- CPU CYCLES / CPU SPEED
 +
 +
=== PLAN GENERATOR ===
 +
Basierend auf ausprobieren von verschiedenen Zugriffspfaden,JOIN-Methoden und JOIN-Reihenfolgen
 +
 +
=== ROW SOURCE GENERATOR===
 +
once the plan generator generates the optimum plan, it handles that to the row source generator
 +
generates an interative execution plan usabel for the database
 +
is an area that we get the row set(Table,view,result of join or groups)
 +
row source tree show the following information:
 +
- execution order
 +
- access methods
 +
- join methods
 +
- data operatons(filter,sort,...)
 +
 +

To analyze an execution plan
 +
  - explain plan
 +
  - autotrace
 +
  - V$SQL_PLAN
 +
EXPLAIN PLAN
 +
'''EXPLAN PLAN FOR [QUERY];'''
 +
generates the explain plan and save into plan_table

SET AUTOTRACE ON;
 +
SET AUTOTRACE ON [EXPLAIN|STATISTICS];
 +
SET AUTOTRACE TRACE[ONLY] ON [EXPLAIN|STATISTICS];
 +
SET AUTOTRACE OFF;
 +

Detailierte Tuning Strategie vs schnelle Tuning Strategie
 +
 +
Where to look?
 +
- Cost
 +
- Access Methods
 +
- Cardinality
 +
- JOIN Methods & JOIN TYPES
 +
- Partition Pruning
 +
- Others
 +
##??
 +
- Parse count
 +
- Number of fetches
 +
- etc..
 +
 +
=== Optimizer hints ===
 +
- To command the optimizer, we use optimizer hints
 +
- optimizer hints force the optimizer to pick a specific action
 +
- The optimizer may not follow your hints
 +
- If hint is not reasonable, the optimizer will ignore it
 +
- Hints can be operating on a single hash, multi-tables, a query block, a specific statement
 +
 +
Categories of the hints:
 +
- Hints for optimization approaches
 +
- Access paths hints
 +
- Query Transformation Hints
 +
- Join order Hints
 +
- Parallel Execution hint
 +
- Others..
 +
 +
SELECT /*+ hint_name(para1 para2 para3) */ id from db;
 +
- hints can used after a select, update or delete keywords
 +
- you can use the table name or its alias as the hint parameter. but if there is an alias, you cannot use the table name
 +
- There can be only one hint area
 +
- be careful on the hints you selected, especially if you are using multiple hints
 +
  you may lead the optimizer to a bad execution plan
 +
 +
=== Gathering stats ===
 +
optimizer statistics are crucialto sql tuning
 +
 +
=== Search for * in execution plan ===
 +
- cardinality
 +
- Access method
 +
- Join method
 +
- Join type
 +
- join order
 +
- Partition pruning
 +
- parallel execution

PL/SQL

PL/SQL stands for “Procedural Language extensions to the Structured Query Language”. 
SQL is a popular language for both querying and updating data in the relational database management systems (RDBMS). 
PL/SQL adds many procedural constructs to SQL language to overcome some limitations of SQL. 
Besides, PL/SQL provides a more comprehensive programming language solution for building mission-critical applications on Oracle Databases.

What is PL/SQL 

PL/SQL is an embedded language. PL/SQL only can execute in an Oracle Database.

Schema vs Tablespace

A schema is a namespace - a logical thing. It is used to organize the names of database objects. It has nothing to do with the way the data is stored.

A tablespace is a physical thing. It's a container for data and has nothing to do with the logical organization of the database objects. 
A database schema vs a database tablespace?

PL/SQL VARIABLE

- Declaring
- Initializing
- Attribute
- Scope
- Bind

PL/SQL BIND VARIABLE

SQL-Bindings können helfen, die Performance von dynamischem SQL ganz erheblich zu verbessern.

Die meisten Datenbankanbieter verfügen heutzutage über einen Ausführungsplan-Cache (Oracle nennt ihn Cursor-Cache), 
in dem zuvor analysierte SQL-Anweisungen gespeichert sind und deren Ausführungsplan (und -pläne) zur Wiederverwendung zwischengespeichert werden. 
Dies ist der Hauptgrund, warum Bind-Variablen so wichtig sind

PL/SQL CONTROL STRUCTURES

- IF
- CASE EXPRESSIONS
- LOOPS
  - Basic LOOP
  - WHILE LOOP
  - FOR LOOP
  - NESTED LOOP
  - LOOP LABELING
- CONTINUE STATEMENT
- GOTO

IF | IF-ELSE | IF-ELSE IF

The IF statement allows you to either execute or skip a sequence of statements, depending on a condition. 
The IF statement has the three forms:

– IF THEN
– IF THEN ELSE
– IF THEN ELSIF

IF condition THEN
statements;
END IF;

LOOP

The CASE statement chooses one sequence of statements to execute out of many possible sequences.
The CASE statement has two types: simple CASE statement and searched CASE statement. 
Both types of the CASE statements support an optional ELSE clause.

Simple CASE statement
Searched CASE statement

This structure is the most basic of all the loop constructs including FOR LOOP and WHILE LOOP. 
This basic LOOP statement consists of a LOOP keyword, a body of executable code, and the END LOOP keywords.

The LOOP statement executes the statements in its body and returns control to the top of the loop. 
Typically, the body of the loop contains at least one EXIT or EXIT WHEN statement for terminating the loop. Otherwise, the loop becomes an infinite loop.

The LOOP statement can have an optional label that appears at the beginning and the end of the statement.

<<label>> LOOP 
 statements; 
END LOOP loop_label; 

 LOOP 
  EXIT; 
 END LOOP;  

 LOOP 
  IF condition THEN 
   EXIT; 
  END IF; 
 END LOOP; 

EXIT WHEN statement
The EXIT WHEN statement has the following syntax:
EXIT WHEN condition;

Nested loops
It is possible to nest a LOOP statement within another LOOP statement as shown in the following example:

USING SQL INSIDE PL/SQL

SELECT columns|expressions
INTO variables|records
FROM table|tables
[WHERE condition];

Gleiche Reihenfolge|Typen der Variablen im STATEMENT

PL/SQL Static SQL

DML OPERATIONS

A Transaction start's with a DML and end with a commit,rollback or system error

- INSERT
- UPDATE
- DELETE
- MERGE

CREATE TABLE testcopy as
       select * from test;

There is no create or replace table in Oracle

DROP TABLE test;
CREATE TABLE test ...;

SEQUENCES

Use of CURRVAL and NEXTVAL
A sequence is a schema object that can generate unique sequential values. 
These values are often used for primary and unique keys. 
You can refer to sequence values in SQL statements with these pseudocolumns:

CURRVAL: Returns the current value of a sequence
NEXTVAL: Increments the sequence and returns the next value
In same statement increments only 1 time
select 1.NEXTVAL 1.NEXTVAL 1.NEXTVAL ....

You must qualify CURRVAL and NEXTVAL with the name of the sequence:
SELECT sequence_name.nextval|currval INTO variable|column
FROM table_name|dual;

Variable|column :=sequence_name.nextval|currval

COMPOSITE DATA TYPES

Records
Ein Datensatz mit Einem oder mehrere Werte
Gleiche oder unterschiedliche Typen
Datensatz innerhalb eines Datensatzes
NULL by Default

1. Weg
r_name TABLE_NAME%rowtype;

Vorteil:
- Dynamische Typen-Zuweisung aus Tabelle
- Durchführung einfacher DML Operationen

2. Weg
- Einzelne Spalten Auswahl
- Eigene Typen definition

type NAME is record ( NAME TYPE,
                      NAME TYPE, 
                      []);

Alle typen ausser ref-cursors

    Genau Angabe der Grösse
    Objekt für Prozedur oder Funktion
    Seltene Verwendung
Max 2 GB
Varray-Typ in der Datenbank
Can't go back
Bounded
Index start from 1
one dimensional array
null by default

- Associative Arrays
    Key can be strings

CURSORS

Bei normaler SQL-Abfrage, wird nur ein Teil der Ergebnismenge, Algorithemn, Ausführungspläne, etc. im KOntextbereich gespeichert.

Cursors are pointers to the Data, in Memory or Disc

2 Types of Cursors:

Implicit Cursor(Create and administration by Database)
  Bei jedem SELECT wird ein Impliziter Cursor erstellt

Explicit Cursor
We can control cursors
Explicit cursors are created by the programmers
Collection vs cursor
You cannot go back in cursors
Abruf- und Speicheralgorithmus
Gleichzeitiges laden von Ergebnismengen in den Speicher
Operationen sind so viel schneller

Anordnung vom Server anhand der Ergebnismenge und der Speichersituation.
Ein Select aus dem Speicher ist schneller als aus der Datenbank

Usage:
- Declare
- Open
- Fetch
- Check
- Close

loop
exit when NAME%notfound;

Cursor Parameters

Cursor Attributes
- %FOUND
- %NOTFOUND
- %ISOPEN
- %ROWCOUNT

FOR UPDATE CLAUSE
- for update(locks the selected rows)
- nowait
- wait(default)
- for update of(locks only selected tables)

EXCEPTIONS

- ORA CODE
 ORA-01403: no data found

Over 10.000 nonamed exceptions
Cause 
Action

A block has 3 sections
- Declare
- Begin-End
- Exception

Implicit
Explicit

- Predefined Oracle Server Error
- Nonpredefined Oracle Server Error
- User-defined Errors

Select "Step Into" on first run, with anonymous blocks
Handle by 3 ways:
1. Trap
2. Propagate
3. Trap & Propagate

SQLCODE & SQLERRM

FUNCTIONS & PROCEDURES

Dynamic SQL & PL/SQL IN PL/SQL

Static SQL
- Written in advance
- parse at compile time

SQL EXECUTION STAGES
- Parse
- Bind
- Execute
- Fetch

Advantages of Dynamic SQL
- Constructed as string at runtime
- Bind variables can be used
- Allows us to use DDL, DCL or Session-Control statements in PL/SQL blocks

How to generate Dynamic SQL(2 Ways)
- Native Dynamic SQL Statements(more efficient and better performance as DBMS_SQL)
- DBMS_SQL Package

Can also generate dynamic PL/SQL blocks

SQL Injection

Oracle-Supplied Packages

- StandardPackage
- DBMS_OUTPUT Package(debug subprograms, read-write text data)
- UTL_FILE Package(performing file operations)
- UTL_MAIL Package(performs mailing operations)

- Execution Plans in Details
- Join Operations
- Basic Tuning Techniques
- Advanced Indexing Techniques
- Hints
- Subjects

Change SQL-Structure or Database-Structure
Need to know of the Database Architecture in Basic

Tools
- SQL plus
- SQL Developer
- SQL Tuning Advisor
is internal diagnostic software that identifies problematic SQL statements and recommends how to improve statement performance.
- Automatic SQL Tuning Advisor
- SQL Access Advisor 
is internal diagnostic software that recommends which materialized views, indexes, and  materialized view logs to create, drop, or retain.
- Automatic Database Diagnostic Monitor (ADDM)
ADDM is self-diagnostic software built into Oracle Database.
- TOAD
- AWR
- TKPROF

- Determine the bottlenecks in low-performance Oracle databases
- Use Oracle database performance tuning tools, like: AWR, ASH, V$ views, SQL tracing, real-time monitoring, and EM Express
- Propose solutions to database performance issues
- Implement Oracle methodology in performance tuning

SQL Tuning is a continuous process
You need to tune your queris
- While creating
- After the creating

When to decide tuning?
- By checking the top consuming queries frequently
- After any complaints of bad performance

The reasons of performance loss
- Structural changes
- Changes on the data volume
- Application changes
- Aged statistics
- Database upgrades
- Database parameter changes
- Operating system changes
- hardware changes

Blocks

All data stored in blocks
smallest unit of database storage
2KB-32KB(default 8KB)
stores row data or index data

Eigenschaften:
- Block Header
  Block Type Information
  Table Information
  Row Directory
    ROWID(Like pointer?)
- Rows
Blocks in Blocks
Jeder Block wird in eine bestimmte Stelle geschrieben

PCTFREE or PCTUSE parameters for the space size in blocks

Wenn nicht genug Platz, wird bei jedem update wahrscheinlich die Position geändert
- Verringerte Leistung 
- IO-OPS werden langsamer
- Schlecht für das Tuning
- Verlangsamt die Indexes

Das lesen einer Zeile, von einer Tabelle aus einem Block, ist schneller als aus mehreren Blöcken

1. Row Header
2. Column Data

- Row Overhead
- Number of Columns
- Cluster Key ID(if clustered)
- ROWID of chained Row Pieces(if any)
- Column Length
- Column Value

Wenn die größe der Blocks in den Abfragen verringert wird, steigert man die Leistung

PGA | PROGRAM/PROCESS/PRIVATE GLOBAL AREA

  Wie die Daten aus der Disc oder dem Puffer gelesen werden
  Die Erstellung eines Ausführungsplans ist ein kostspieliger Vorgang
  Die Verwendung eines Ausführungsplans für ähnliche Abfragen kann sehr effizient sein

OTHER AREAS

BUFFER CACHE

Largest memory area of sga
Stores the copies of the blocks read from the disc
Available for all the users
First check Buffer than Disc, for the data
Check Disc only if blocks are missing
Much faster than disc
Size of the memory is endless
Maintained with a complex algorithm
Can't save all data in buffer cache

IN-MEMORY-DATABASES
Stores the most recently used & most toched ones
Database writer process handles the write operations to the disc
Writes not one by one, writes all changed blocks in one step
dirty blocks
Stores Tabledata and Indexdata

Performance for same
- queries
- tables
- indexes

REDO LOG BUFFER

-> Log Writer Process(LGWR)
-> Redo Log Entries
-> Redo Log Files
-> Server Process 

Redo-Log-Files
Oracle Guarantees Not to Lose Data
- A Redo Log Entry is created when insert, update, delete, create, alter, drop occurs
Create Redo Log entries for all changes
Redo Log Entries has the changes made to the database
They are used for recovery operatins
You need privileges as a developer
Redo Log Entries are Stored in the redo log buffer
Starts every 3 sec and write to disc
Redo Log buffer is a circular buffer
Rollback is not done with redo log data
Redo do recovery on rollback redo log files are deleted

UNDO

What is rollback and recovery
The original data stored into the memory(undo tablespace) is called as undo data
buffer cache for the modifications
undo data is not modified because
  - Used for rollback operations
  - Used for providing read consistency
  - Used for providing flashback feature

BLOCKS > EXTENTS > SEGMENTS > TABLESPACE

DML PROCESS AND COMMIT

Optimize Queries and DML's
- Checks the Shared SQL AREA for similar statements to use
- checks the data dictionary cache and checks if query is valid
- Checks buffer cache & undo segements for the related data
- Locks the related blocks
- Makes the changes to the blocks in the buffer cache
- the changes are applied to the redo log buffer before the buffer cache
- the server returns the feedback for the changes

When the user commits:
- System change number write to redo log files
- the server creates a commitrecord with scn
- the lgwr process write redo log entries in the redo log buffer to the redo log files
- the dbwn writes the dirty blocks to the disc & unlocks the blocks
- The server returns a feedback about the transaction completion

Automatic memory management

The size of each memory ara is important for the execution performance of your queries
Wenn des Speicherbereich nicht ausreicht verringert das die performance
It can manage both SGA & PGA memory 
In früheren versionen von oracle musste PGA manuell angegeben werden
it is recommended to leave automatic memory management enabled to increase the performance
will prefent out of memory errors

Oracle database storage architecture

- Storage = Discs
- Control files storage the pyhsical structure information of the database(without no access to data)
- Data Files - Stores data(Tables, procedures, application, data
- Online Redo log files: stores redo log entries
- archived redo log files - online redo log files are constantly mover ehre
- backup files - Stores the exact copy of the data files for disaster recovery
- Parameter files - Stores the configuration data of the database instance
- password file - Stores the passwords of the amin user(sysdba,sysoper,sysasm)
- alert log & trace files - stores log message and errors occured in the database

Some Informations are for the dev's and some for the oracle support service

Logical and Physical Database structure

- Blocks | smallest units of storage(2kb-32kb)
- Extents | combination of several consecutive data blocks.
  used for stroing secific type of info
- segments | combination of several extents
 used for storing some big data(tables,indexes, etc)
  - data segments
  - index segments
  - undo segments
  - temporary segments
- tablespaces | combination of many segments. used for grouping the related data in one container
 - Temporary Tabelspace
   Stores teh temporary data of a session
 - Permanent Tablespace
   Stores the persistent schema objects

DB must have min 2 Tablespaces
- System Tablespace
- SYSAUX Tablespace
DBA can create more Tablespaces

Check for Performance
Set Tablespaces Online and Offline Status
Can do backup or recovery of a give tablespace
Import or export Tablespaces
Create a transportable tablespace and move too other db

Schema

Ein Schema ist eine Sammlung von Datenbankobjekten die einem Datenbankbenutzer gehören

PERFORMANCE TUNING BASICS

SQL Tuning is a continuous process
You nedd to tune your queries
 - on creating
 - After the creation
 - On new Indexes created
 - Change of data volume

When to decide tuning?
 - checking the top consuming queries frequently
 - after any complaints of bad performance

two goals in tuning:
- reduce user response time, decreasing time between statement and response
- Improve throughput

Knowledge and skills:
- know your db architecture
- sql
- sql tuning tools

BAD SQL

Unnecessary:
- parse time
- I/O operations
- CPU Time
- waits

TIME on Wait(CPU) + Time on Execution = DB TIME
The reason of a bad sql
- bad design
- poor coding
- inefficient execution plan

Effective Schema Design

- Assign data types as much as needed
- datatypes with variable-length
- check data-consistency problems
- select exactly the same data type between parent-child-keys
- don't use varchar2 for the most of the datatypes/strings/values

Enforce data integrity
- correct PK and FK
- use normalization well
- smaller tables, faster join operation
- select right table type
  - heap-organized table
  - Index Clustered tables
  - Hash Clustered tables
  - Index-Organized tables
  - External tables
  - and more
- Create Clusters
- use indexes often and select index type carefully
- create good indexes methods
- Create index-organized tables(IOT)

table partitioning

SQL STATEMENT PROCESSED

-> Syntax check
-> Semantic check
-> Privilege check
-> Allocate private SQL AREA
Existing shared SQL AREA
NO-> HARDPARSE(Library cache miss)
 -> Allocate shared sql area
 -> optimization
 -> row source generation
YES-> SOFTPARSE
-> EXECUTE STATEMENT

Softparse is faster, use for tuning
- Hashwert in Libcache
 - Key for the executionplan in shared sql area
- executionplan is stored in shared library

  Plan is dynamic
-> Query Transformer(Transform Query)
-> Estimator(Query+estimates)
^-> Plan Generator(Query plan to row source generation)

Query Transformer

Query transforms the query into a better performing one but semantically equivalent of it
If the transform isn't better, it use the original one
Time restriction and old statistics may lead a wrong plan creation
Or Expansion
 Using or in the where clause will prevent index usage
 
SELECT * FROM ID WHERE ID = 1 OR ID = 2;
Faster:
SELECT * FROM ID WHERE ID = 1;
UNION ALL
SELECT * FROM ID WHERE ID = 2;

Subquery Unnesting
Verschachtelte Abfrage in Join-Anweisung
SELECT * FROM ID WHERE ID IN
   (SELECT ID FROM CLIENTS)
The otimizer transfomrs a nested query into a join statement
SELECT ID,*
FROM ID, CLIENTS
WHERE ID.ID = CLIENTS.ID;

Complex VIEW

Selectivity & Cardinality

Selectivity = NUMBER OF ROWS FROM QUERY / TOTAL NUMBERS OF THE ROWS
Cardinality = Total numbers of rows x Selectivity

Why selectivity and cardinality is important?
- SEL affects the estimates in I/O cost
- SEL affects the sort cost
- CAR is used to determine join, sort and filter costs
- Incorrect SEL and CAR = incorrect plan cost estimation

COST IN DETAIL

- Cost is the optimizer's best estimate of the numbers of I/O to execute statement
- To estimate the cost, the estimator uses:
 - Disk I/O
 - CPU usage
 - Memory usage

COST = SINGLE-BLOCK I/O COST + MULTI-BLOCK I/O COST + CPU COST / SINGLE-BLOCK READ TIME
- SINGEL BLOCK READ TIME
- MULTI BLOCK READ TIME
- CPU CYCLES / CPU SPEED

PLAN GENERATOR

Basierend auf ausprobieren von verschiedenen Zugriffspfaden,JOIN-Methoden und JOIN-Reihenfolgen

ROW SOURCE GENERATOR

once the plan generator generates the optimum plan, it handles that to the row source generator
generates an interative execution plan usabel for the database
is an area that we get the row set(Table,view,result of join or groups)
row source tree show the following information:
- execution order
- access methods
- join methods
- data operatons(filter,sort,...)

SQL TUNING PRINICPLES AND STRATEGIES

SQL TUNING PRINCIPALS
- IDENTIFYING the issue
- carify teh details of that issue
- collection data
- analyze the data
- choose an appropriate tuning strategy

SQL TUNING STRATEGIES
- Parse time reduction
- plan comparison strategy
- quick solution strategy
- finding & implementing a good plan
- Query analysis strategy

SQL TUNING ADVISOR(braucht zugriffsrechte)

etc..

Use dynamic stats to create better plans

QUERY ANALYSIS STRATEGIE

- quick tuning strategies did not work, and we have time to work on this problem
- query can be modified
- determine the underlying cause

What to do on this strategy
- statistics and parameters
- query structure
- access paths
- join orders & join methods(changes?)
- others

Collecting Data
- Execution plan
- information of the objects in the query
- collecting statistics
  - object stats
  - systems stats
- histograms
The available tools are
- sqlt
- dbms_stats
- tkprof
- awr report
- etc..

Systemstatistiken und Histogramme

PRE-ANALYZE of the Query
- check the
  - volumes of resulting data
  - predicates
  - problematic constructs
    - OUTER JOIN
    - VIEWS

Generating Execution plan

To analyze an execution plan
  - explain plan
  - autotrace
  - V$SQL_PLAN
EXPLAIN PLAN
EXPLAN PLAN FOR [QUERY];
generates the explain plan and save into plan_table

select * from plan_table;

AUTOTRACE

SET AUTOTRACE ON;
SET AUTOTRACE ON [EXPLAIN|STATISTICS];
SET AUTOTRACE TRACE[ONLY] ON [EXPLAIN|STATISTICS];
SET AUTOTRACE OFF;

Autotrace uses plan table like the explain plan
Bindvariablen mit implizierter typenkonvertierung, klappt manchmal nicht

SQLPLUS>> 
SQL> set linesize 200;
SQL> set autotrace traceonly explain;
SQL> select * from sales s, customers c where s.cust_id = c.cust_id and s.cust_id = 987;
SQL> set autotrace traceonly statistics;
SQL> set autotrace traceonly statistics;
SQL> set autotrace traceonly;
SQL> set autotrace on;
SQL> show autotrace;

AUTOTRACE WITH SQL DEVELOPER

V$SQL_PLAN VIEW

There are a lot of performance views tha can be used for tuning
- V$SQLAREA
- V$SQL_WORKAREA
- V$SQL
- V$SQL_PLAN
- V$SQL_PLAN_STATISTICS
- V$SQL_PLAN_STATISTICS_ALL

V$SQL_PLAN
- Actaul execution plans are stored here
- It is very similar to plan_table
Wenn es eine Unterschied zwischen beiden gibt, gilt der Wert von V$SQL_PLAN als wahr
- V$SQL view
Sie können beide die Tabellenfunktin und das dbms_xplan Paket aufrufen für eine gute Ausgabe

SELECT * FROM TABLE(DBMS_XPLAN.DISPLAY_CURSOR('XXXXX'));

Optimizer hints

- To command the optimizer, we use optimizer hints
- optimizer hints force the optimizer to pick a specific action
- The optimizer may not follow your hints
- If hint is not reasonable, the optimizer will ignore it
- Hints can be operating on a single hash, multi-tables, a query block, a specific statement

Categories of the hints:
- Hints for optimization approaches
- Access paths hints
- Query Transformation Hints
- Join order Hints
- Parallel Execution hint
- Others..

SELECT /*+ hint_name(para1 para2 para3) */ id from db;
- hints can used after a select, update or delete keywords
- you can use the table name or its alias as the hint parameter. but if there is an alias, you cannot use the table name
- There can be only one hint area
- be careful on the hints you selected, especially if you are using multiple hints
  you may lead the optimizer to a bad execution plan

Gathering stats

optimizer statistics are crucialto sql tuning
