Oracle Production Cser De*nitions

When s"ecifying the num%er of users "lanning to access the "roduction system; weo%sere two categories of user8

1> 'edium 9e#g#; Which "roduct contri%uted most to last months reenue in a

"articular regionI>4> 6om"le+ 9e#g#; What is the %usiness trend for s"ecic "roducts for the last three

yearsI>

Simple querieslook at small amounts of data in the data%ase# 'ost of the time; theywill analyze %usiness information aaila%le in summary ta%les# These queries take fulladantage of -tree and %itma" inde+es# 5im"le queries may also %e coered querieswhere all elds required for the query may %e dened in the indices#

)edium queries demand more resources from the data%ase# !n addition to using

inde+es and summary ta%les; 'edium queries also (oin multi"le ta%les; and docalculations and aggregations#

/omple queriesare the most com"le+; often inoling full-ta%le scans; which create asu%stantial %urden on data%ase resources# ,ueries that analyze data for %usiness trendsrequire numerous sorting and multi"le (oining of o"erations; including calculations suchas summations and aerages# 5ince these large queries use such a large "ortion ofsystem resources; it is im"ortant to limit the num%er of users when e+ecuting them#
