Online class: Advanced Oracle internals & troubleshooting - Shared Pool

Attend world-class Oracle training without traveling and travel expenses

Content of "Advanced Oracle internals & troubleshooting - Shared Pool"

The online training class is entirely focused on understanding Oracle's shared pool internals, its implementation and troubleshooting related issues. You will learn about the internal structures (e.g. sub-pools, durations, extents, free-list, LRU, etc.) of the shared pool and how a shared SQL statement (parent / child cursor) is stored in detail (e.g. heaps, KGLOB, KGLH0, SQLA, etc.). It is full of intensive learning, creating and reading memory dumps / stack traces and exploring advanced V$/X$ views.

It covers the Oracle versions starting from 10.2 up to 12.1 and highlights important changes in the shared pool implementation.

Afterwards you will be able to track down and possibly fix or create a work-around for issues like a SQL statement that needs excessively more memory after a database upgrade or an application that continuously or sporadically receives ORA-04031 errors.

I highly encourage you to send me your shared pool related issues, dumps or scenarios in advance - so we can discuss them in the "Q&A or further demonstrations" part of this online training class.

Objectives

• Understand the internals and implementation of Oracle's shared pool plus its interaction with the operating system
• Have the ability to track down, identify and troubleshoot shared pool related database issues (e.g. memory space pressure, ORA-04031 errors, fragmentation, large memory consumer, etc.) in an efficient way

Non-Objectives

• The class is not a beginner database class
• The class is not about SQL tuning or the cost based optimizer (CBO)

Date: Tuesday, June 13, 2017 from 3:00 PM to 7:00 PM (CEST)

Language: English

Course of action: The class consists of two learning units (each takes round about 1 hour and 15 minutes), a short break of 30 minutes and a following Q&A or further demonstrations.
