Chapter 6. Oracle Performance
As this book illustrates, the Oracle database has a wide range of features. As you gain experience with Oracle, you'll reap more of the benefits it has to offer. One area on which you will inevitably focus is performance tuning. This chapter gives you the basics you'll need to understand before you can address performance issues.
Oracle database performance tuning has been extensively documented in the Oracle community. There are numerous books that provide detailed and excellent information; many of these are listed in Appendix B. This book is focused more on the concepts of the Oracle database, so we won't delve too deeply into specific tuning recommendations. Instead, we'll touch on the importance of tuning and discuss some basic notions of how Oracle uses resources. Here, we're simply laying a foundation for understanding Oracle performance issues. This understanding will help you implement the tuning procedures most suited for your own particular implementation scenario. Where appropriate, we'll provide some basic tuning guidelines.
