It describes a PL/SQL package that I put together called “ash_xplan.sql” which can be used to display real-time information about a SQL statement currently executing. This package combines information from the Active Session History (V$ACTIVE_SESSION_HISTORY) […]

This presentation will discuss all the different types of table data compression in Oracle database (i.e. basic/advanced de-duplication compression and hybrid-columnar compression), as well […]
