Oracle designed its database products to be flexible and
configurable so they would operate on a variety of hardware
platforms, and they succeeded--Oracle software runs on more than
seventy computer platforms, from mainframes to PC networks to
handheld PDAs. The secret to this flexibility lies in the
software's initialization parameters, whose numerous settings can
be configured for top performance in countless environments. On the
downside, however, improper settings can slow a system down; even
grind it to a halt. And with so many parameters--which change from
version to version of Oracle software--it's challenging for Oracle
administrators to keep in mind the characteristics and optimal
settings for each parameter.
The "Oracle Initialization Parameters Pocket Reference" provides
the crucial information you need to make key adjustments to your
Oracle database. This concise guide is a mix of invaluable
performance tips and a quick reference to Oracle's initialization
parameters. The book describes each initialization parameter,
indicates what category it's in--from auditing to multi-threaded
server MTS--and whether it can be modified dynamically via the
ALTER SESSION or ALTER SYSTEM command.
In addition to the details about parameter characteristics and
settings, you'll find performance tips, such as how the various
parameters interact, and what the most advantageous settings are
for different configurations. No other reference focuses
exclusively on these initialization parameters--an absolute must
for anyone working with an Oracle database.
Presented in a handy, easy-to-use format, the "Oracle
Initialization Parameters Pocket Reference" is a welcome
alternative for anyonewho's struggled to memorize the best
configuration settings or gone back and forth to online resources,
trying to figure out what works. O'Reilly's Pocket References put
the information you need close at hand where you need it most. This
guide will keep your Oracle databases operating at peak
performance.
