Oracle Performance 7
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 eventually focus is performance tuning, since you will inevitably be
forced to wring additional performance from your Oracle database in the face of
increasing demands. This chapter gives you the basics you??™ll need to understand as
you address performance.
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.
