Golden Bean has improved Performance on Oracle tables

Rama_G

Hi All,

I tried to improve performance on some of the Oracle tables by using SQL queries.

However, in my organisation Golden Bean is enabled and it has improved the performance way faster.

Just trying to understand how this can be so much faster. I am also reading some of the blogs related to it.

Regards

how can we reproduce what you report?

I am just sharing my thoughts here to hear more on this.

Thanks

URL?

What is Golden Bean?

I am referring to the internal blogs in my organization (confluence pages). Typically, it increases the parallel runs of the batch process and in turn it increase the performance.

Sorry for not providing the URL.

Fact. Oracle is designed as a highly performant and scalable database.

However, it is often misused, which has a distinct performance penalty. Equally often, the idiotic ignorant developer or manager, blames Oracle for this poor performance - instead of realising that their incorrect use, poor design, and shoddy code, are the actual problems.

Case in point. An hour ago a process on one of our databases, analysed 30.5 million IP (network) conversations, and summarised that as a 20.7 million IP Accounting data set - in 116 seconds.

Oracle performance has ceased to amaze me - unlike the abuse of Oracle by shoddy design and code, by the ignorant.

Let me fix this thread's title for you:

What is Golden Bean? All I can see on Google are mentions of coffee.

You improve the performance against a database by seeing where the time is going, then finding out why, then fixing the problem. I’ve never seen a sensible application requirement that couldn’t perform incredibly well after fixing the problem.

The problem is always different (okay it’s mostly one of a very small handful of things), which is why you can’t just throw one thing at it for it to go away.

You don’t need any extra special tool to run things in parallel on Oracle.

We are still none the wiser about what this Golden Bean is.

Excuse-me, but are you selling something? If so, then at least indicate that via some link.

I am asking this seeing that I don't seem to be able to learn anything new from this post.

Just some vague indication about parallel. Not clear if that refers to parallel execution in some SQL statement, running some jobs in parallel (eventually using dbms_parallel_execute) or what...

Based on the unbelievable performance the OP reported, Golden Bean might be a new supercomputer, which runs 100,000 times faster than the typical database server. All the improvement comes from the hardware: the entire database is in superfast memory (so, in particular, no disk operations - there are no disks to begin with), processing speed is 100,000 faster than typical CPU's, ........
