Expert Oracle SQL: Optimization, Deployment, and Statistics is about optimizing indi-
vidual SQL statements, especially on production database systems. The book begins
by assuming you have already identified a particular SQL statement and are consider-
ing taking steps to improve its performance. The book describes a systematic process
by which to diagnose a problem statement, identify a fix, and to implement that fix
safely in a production system. You’ll learn to improve performance when it is too slow,
and to stabilize performance when it is too variable. You’ll learn about system statistics
and how the Cost-Based Optimizer uses them to determine a suitable execution plan
for a given statement. That knowledge provides the foundation from which to identify
the root cause, and to stabilize and improve performance.
Next after identifying a problem and the underlying root cause is to put in place a
solution. Expert Oracle SQL: Optimization, Deployment, and Statistics explains how to
apply various remedies such as changing the SQL statement, adding hints, changing
the physical design, and more, and how they can be brought to bear on fixing a prob-
lem once and for all.
Rolling a change out smoothly is an important topic when dealing with tuning and
optimization. Expert Oracle SQL: Optimization, Deployment, and Statistics does not let
you down in this critical area and contains two chapters of good information on how
to safely deploy changes into production so that your systems remaining running and
available throughout the deployment process.
