Partitioning tutorial - new features in Oracle Database 12c
- by KLaker
For data warehousing projects Oracle Partitioning really is a must-have feature because it delivers so many important benefits such as:
Dramatically improves query performance and speeds up database maintenance operations
Lowers costs by enabling a tiered storage approach that allows data to be stored on the most cost-effective storage for better resource utilisation
Combined with Oracle Advanced Compression, it provides an automated approach to information lifecycle management using a simple, efficient, yet powerful way to manage data growth and reduce complexity and costs
To help you get the most from partitioning we have released a new tutorial that covers the 12c new features. Topics include how to:
Use Interval Reference Partitioning
Perform Cascading TRUNCATE and EXCHANGE Operations
Move Partitions Online
Maintain Multiple Partitions
Maintain Global Indexes Asynchronously
Use Partial Indexes
