Client Result Cache

Is it possible to use the Client Result Cache when you use ODP.NET?
With the client side query cache it should be possible to cache query results in client memory.

Is it possible to use the Client Result Cache when you use ODP.NET?
Yes, absolutely. In fact, my next Oracle Magazine column is on just that subject... though you won't see it until the May/June 2008 issue is published.

  • Using the Client Result Cache

    Hello everyone,
    I have a question regarding the use of the client result cache but first of all here are the informations about my database:
    SQL> SELECT * FROM v$version;
    BANNER
    Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.1.0 - 64bit Production
    PL/SQL Release 11.2.0.1.0 - Production
    CORE    11.2.0.1.0    Production
    TNS for Linux: Version 11.2.0.1.0 - Production
    NLSRTL Version 11.2.0.1.0 - Production
    I have installed the Oracle Client Tools on my clientmachine. It has a tnsnames.ora like this:
    ORCL =
      (DESCRIPTION =
        (ADDRESS_LIST =
          (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = FEA11-119SRV)(PORT = 1521))
        (CONNECT_DATA =
          (SERVICE_NAME = orcl.local)
    The Client Result Cache is configured in the sqlnet.ora.
    ADR_BASE = /u01/app/oracle
    OCI_RESULT_CACHE_MAX_SIZE= 2048000
    OCI_RESULT_CACHE_MAX_RSET_SIZE = 1024000
    NAMES.DIRECTORY_PATH = (EZCONNECT, TNSNAMES, HOSTNAME)
    The Databaseserver is configured like that:
    SQL> col name format a30
    SQL> col value format a30
    SQL> SELECT name, value
      2  FROM   v$system_parameter
      3  WHERE  name LIKE '%result_cache%';
    NAME                   VALUE
    result_cache_mode           MANUAL
    result_cache_max_size           0
    result_cache_max_result        5
    result_cache_remote_expiration 0
    client_result_cache_size       1073741824
    client_result_cache_lag        3000
    After configuring client an server I try the followign SQL-Statement on the clientmachine:
    sqlplus oracle/password@orcl
    set autotrace traceonly explain
    SELECT /*+ result_cache */ *
    FROM testtable;
    SQL
    The execution plan show two operations: "SELECT STATEMENT" and "TABLE ACCESS FULL" but no the "RESULT CACHE" operation.
    Did I miss something?
    Any help would be appreciated

    result_cache_max_size           0
    That means the result cache is disabled. You need to set it to a non-zero value. That is the maximum ammount of memory, in bytes, the database will allocate on the shared pool to dedicate it to the result cache for all requests.
    By the way, OCI_RESULT_CACHE_MAX_SIZE is optional. By default the sessions will have the maximum size they can occupy on the cache determined by CLIENT_RESULT_CACHE parameter, the client (OCI) side parameters override that.
    result_cache_mode           MANUAL
    Another thing to consider is RESULT_CACHE_MODE in MANUAL, that will cause only the statements with the RESULT_CACHE hint on it to be cached on the result cache. You can also set result cache to mode FORCE on specific tables with alter table command.

  • Does OCI client result cache and oracle UCP work together?

    I'm using Oracle 11.2.1.0. I've set up FCF and enabled OCI result cache on server side, so on client side, I'm using UCP for failover.
    this is my datasource configuration:
    <Resource name="jdbc/MyPool"
    auth="Container"
    factory="oracle.ucp.jdbc.PoolDataSourceImpl"
    type="oracle.ucp.jdbc.PoolDataSource"
    connectionFactoryClassName="oracle.jdbc.pool.OracleDataSource"
    url="jdbc:oracle:oci:@dbhost:1521/myDb"
    user="db_user"
    password="db_password"
    fastConnectionFailoverEnabled="true"
    onsConfiguration=""
    connectionPoolName="dbPool"
    initialPoolSize="5"
    minPoolSize="5"
    maxPoolSize="25"
    connectionWaitTimeout="10000"
    inactiveConnectionTimeout="120000"
    abandonConnectionTimeout="60"
    validateConnectionOnBorrow="true"
    sqlForValidateConnection="select user from dual"
    maxStatements="30"/>
    I've enabled OCI client result cache.
    I use /*+ result_cache */ in my query to take advantage of the result cache.
    so I execute the following scenario:
    i) select /*+ result_cache */ value from myTable where id=1; (this returns a result.)
    ii) update myTable to set a different value for id=1 record;
    iii) run select query again; (this should return a different result. oci result cache gets updated when table changes.)
    if I take out
    "sqlForValidateConnection" and/or "validateConnectionOnBorrow" (i.e. disable sql validation on borrow), the 2nd query after table update doesn't show the latest result. it's still showing the old query result.
    is this a bug? that UCP validation on borrow has an impact on OCI result cache function? this doesn't happen if using dbcp java connection pooling with OCI result cache.

    it turns out I ran the test against an oracle server that doesnt have FCF configured, nor ONS.
    once i switched to a correct oracle cluster, my test passed.

  • Using the client result cache without the query result cache

    I have constructed a client in C# using ODP.NET to connect to an Oracle database and want to perform client result caching for some of my queries.
    This is done using a result_cache hint in the query.
    select /*+ result_cache */ * from table
    As far as I can tell query result caching on the server is done using the same hint, so I was wondering if there was any way to differentiate between the two? I want the query results to be cached on the client, but not on the server.
    The only way I have found to do this is to disable all caching on the server, but I don't want to do this as I want to use the server cache for PL/SQL function results.
    Thanks.

    You haven't provided ANY information about how you configured the result cache. Different parameters are used for configuring the client versus the server result cache so you need to post what, if anything, you configured.
    Post the code you executed when you set the 'client_result_cache_lag' and 'client_result_cache_size' parameters so we can see what values you used. Also post the results of querying those parameters after you set them that show that they really are set.
    You also need to post your app code that shows that you are using the OCI statements are used when you want to use client side result cacheing.

    Statement Caching in OCI
    Statement caching refers to the feature that provides and manages a cache of statements for each session. In the server, it means that cursors are ready to be used without the need to parse the statement again. Statement caching can be used with connection pooling and with session pooling, and will improve performance and scalability. It can be used without session pooling as well. The OCI calls that implement statement caching are:
      OCIStmtPrepare2()
      OCIStmtRelease()

  • Client Result Cache Question

    Hi,
    i am not sure, whether the new feature "Client Result Cache" for OCI - Connections is an enterprise only feature or not.
    The Licensing Information at http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/license.112/e10594/editions.htm#CJACGHEB shows this three features are enterprise only:
    Client Side Query Cache
    Query Results Cache
    PL/SQL Function Result Cache
    Which of these are pointing to Client Result Cache? Is it the Query Results Cache? Or something else?
    As an Hint, i am unable to activate the feature on standard edition databases, but i am not sure, if this is the reason or if i am just making some mistakes in configuration/testing.
    Thanks in advance
    Joerg

    we stopped all tests, because it seems to be a enterprise edition only feature.

  • Client Result Cache for geometries

    Hi,
    we have experienced that Client Result Caches can not be used using SDO geometries or function calls. Does anybody know a workaround for using Client Result Caches with geometries (e.g. casting the geometries to varchar2).

  • Does Instant Client support client result caching?

    Hi all,
    couldn't find the answer to this question on the ic-FAQ (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/features/oci/ic-faq-094177.html)
    Does Instant Client support client result caching?
    Kind regards, Sander.

    Yes. Like any other OCI feature, Client Result Caching is supported by Instant Client.

  • 11g Client result set caching in OCI

    I'm trying out this feature in the 11.1.0.6 release. My understanding of this feature is that when enabled with the appropriate server-side init.ora parameters, a 11g OCI client connecting to the instance will cache SQL results locally in some fixed amount of RAM on the client. The idea is that network roundtrips would simply disappear in this situation.
    I'm not sure if it's working--or how to tell if it is. I have a 11g instance running and put the 11g client incl. sqlplus on a separate box, setting up TNS connectivity from client to server. Pretty standard stuff. I can connect fine and run the same query over and over, but I see incrementing execution counts on the database side and network traffic between the client and server so I'm guessing that the client-side caching isn't happening. There doesn't seem to be a ton of clear documentation on this feature so I wanted to see if anyone else has kicked it around.
    Bob

    I am also facing the same issue (enabling client result set caching). I am using Oracle Database 11g Release 11.2.0.2.0.
    I have made the below configuration changes
    1. Enabled the client result set cache by setting the server side parameter 'client_result_cache_size' to 10485760 (10 MB)
    2. Restarted the oracle instance after setting the above parameter
    3. Added a table annotation by executing the statement ALTER TABLE emp RESULT_CACHE (MODE FORCE). I verified that the annotation is applied by query the user table later.
    4. Enabled statement caching on the client side i.e. on the JDBC driver.
    5. Used prepared statements to execute the query so that statement caching kicks in. From the driver logs I verified that execution of subsequent queries after the first one used the same statement handle.
    After executing the select prepared statement query for three times I checked the CLIENT_RESULT_CACHE_STATS$ view. But this view didn't result in any rows.
    As part of troubleshooting I even tried adding the /*+ RESULT_CACHE */ hint to the query but the view didn't gave any result.
    Also on enabling sql trace I could see from tkprof that every execution of the query increased the number of rows fetched on the server which indicates that the client result set caching in OCI isn't working.
    Are there any steps which I have missed?
    Thanks in advance.

    In the execution plan of STEP-3, against ID-1 the operation RESULT CACHE is shown which shows the result has been retrieved directly from Result cache. Does this mean that Oracle Server has Incrementally Retrieved the resultset?
    Because, before the execution of STEP-2, the cache contained only 2 records. Then 1 record was inserted but after STEP-3, a total of 3 records was returned from cache. Does this mean that newly inserted row is retrieved from database and merged to the cached result of STEP-1?
    If Oracle server has incrementally retrieved and merged newly inserted record, what mechanism is being used by the Oracle to do so?

    Edited by: 965300 on Oct 15, 2012 12:25 AMNo, the RESULT CACHE operation doesn't necessarily mean that the results are retrieved from there. It could be being
    written to there.
    Look at the number of consistent gets: it's zero in the first step (I assume you had already run this query before) and I would
    conclude that the data is being read from the result cache.
    In the third step there are 4 consistent gets. I would conclude that the data is being written to the result cache, a fourth step repeating
    the SQL should show zero consistent gets and that would be the results being read.

  • Query result caching on oracle 9 and 10 vs indexing

    I am trying to improve performance on oracle 9i and 10g.
    We use some queries that take up to 30 minutes to execute.
    I heard that there are some products to cache query results.
    Would this have any advantage over using indexes or materialized views?
    Does anyone know any products that I can use to cache the results of this queries on disk?
    Personally I think that by using the query result caching I would reduce the cpu time needed to process the query.
    Is this true?

    Your message post pushes all the wrong buttons starting with the fact that 9i and 10g are marketing labels not version numbers.
    You don't tune queries by spending money and throwing resources at them. You tune them by identifying the problem queries, running explain plans, visualizing their output using DBMS_XPLAN, and addressing the root cause.
    If you want help post full version numbers, the SQL statements, and the DBMS_XPLAN outputs.

  • Oracle 11g result cache and TimesTen

    Oracle 11g has introduced the concept of result cache whereby the result set of frequently executed queries are stored in cache and used later when other users request the same query. This is different from caching the data blocks and exceuting the query over and over again.
    Tom Kyte calls this just-in-time materialized view whereby the results are dynamically evaluated without DBA intervention
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/oramag/oracle/07-sep/o57asktom.html
    My point is that in view of utilities like result_cache and possible use of Solid State Disks in Oracle to speed up physical I/O etc is there any need for a product like TimesTen? It sounds to me that it may just asdd another layer of complexity?

    Oracle result cache ia a useful tool but it is distinctly different from TimesTen. My understanding of Oracle's result cache is caching results set for seldom changing data like look up tables (currencies ID/code), reference data that does not change often (list of counter parties) etc. It would be pointless for caching result set where the underlying data changes frequently.
    There is also another argument for SQL result cache in that if you are hitting high on your use of CPUs and you have enough of memory then you can cache some of the results set thus saving on your CPU cycles.
    Considering the arguments about hard wired RDBMS and Solid State Disks (SSD), we can talk about it all day but having SSD does not eliminate the optimiser consideration for physical I/O. A table scan is a table scan whether data resides on SCSI or SSD disk. SSD will be faster but we are still performing physical IOs.
    With regard to TimesTen, the product positioning is different. TimesTen is closer to middletier than Oracle. It is designed to work closely to application layer whereas Oracle has much wider purpose. For real time response and moderate volumes there is no way one can substitue TimesTen with any hard wired RDBMS. The request for result cache has been around for sometime. In areas like program trading and market data where the underlying data changes rapidly, TimesTen will come very handy as the data is real time/transient and the calculations have to be done almost realtime, with least complications from the execution engine. I fail to see how one can deploy result cache in this scenario. Because of the underlying change of data, Oracle will be forced to calculate the queries almost everytime and the result cache will be just wasted.
    Hope this helps,
    Mich

  • Client automatically cache the data got from cache server?

    Hi expert,
    I have 2 questions about the client local cache. Would you please help to give me some suggestion?
    1. Will client automatically locally cache the data got from cache server the first time and automatically update the data in local cache when getting the same data from cache server again? I go through the API reference but cannot find any API to query the data currently cached in the local cache.
    2. If client will automatically cache the data got from cache server. Is there any way for a client to get the data event that happens to its local cache, such as entry created in local cache, entry deleted from local cache and entry updated in local cache? In my opinion, when getting an entry from cache server the first time, the MapListener's entry create event should be triggered. When getting the same entry again, the entry update event should be triggered.
    However, I have tried a client with replicated cache, a client with partitioned cache, an extend client with remote cache and a client with local cache(front cache part of near cache), the client (the NamedCache object has been set the MapListener) cannot get any event notification after getting data from cache server. By the way, my listener is OK since when putting data the entry create event and entry update event will be triggered.
    Your suggestion is very appreciated. :)

    If I were you I would read this http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14526_01/coh.350/e14510/toc.htm
    and particularly the section about Near Caching here http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14526_01/coh.350/e14510/nearcache.htm#CDEFEAJG
    which is what you are asking about in your question.
    Near Caching is how Coherence stores data in the locally - which is the answetr to your first question. How Near Caching works is explained in the documentation.

This is explained here http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14526_01/coh.350/e14510/queryabledatafabric.htm#sthref38 A ContinuousQueryCache is like having a sub-set of the underlying cache on the local client which you can then listen to etc...

  • Possible to delete Offline Files content for a specific user from the Client Side Cache (CSC) ?.

    Hello Everyone,
    We would like to implement a script to delete the offline files in the Client Side Cache (CSC) for a nominated user (on Windows 7 x64 enterprise).
    I am aware that;
    1. We can use a registry value to flush the entire CNC cache (for all users) next time the machine reboots.
    2. If we delete the user's local profile it appears that Windows 7 also removes their content from the local CSC.
    However, we would like to just delete the CSC content for a particular nominated user without having to delete their local user profile.
    In our environment we have many users that share workstations but only use them occasionally. We don't use roaming profile so we would like to retain all the users' local profiles but still delete the CSC content for any users that haven't
    logged on in a week.
    Any ideas or info would be appreciated !
    Thanks, Makes

    Hi,
    I don't think this is possible.
    If you want to achieve it via script, I suggest you post it in official script forum for more professional help:
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/scriptcenter/en-US/home?category=scripting
    The reason why we recommend posting appropriately is you will get the most qualified pool of respondents, and other partners who read the forums regularly can either share their knowledge or learn from your interaction with us. Thank you for your understanding.

  • Function result Cache in oracle 11G

    I am supposed to get the results quickly for "cached" call. However, i still dont see any change in the response time. May i know what i am missing here?
    Thank you

  • Production use of the Result Cache area

    Hi all,
       OS.......: OEL 6.3 (x86_64)
       DB.......: Oracle 11.2.0.3 (x86_64)
       I would like to know from those who have used the Result Cache massively in production environments... just to know the opinion of the ones who have used this "for real". Did you use it proactively, to solve a specific problem? Or in every new database created, you configure this memory area? Did it really work as it should be?
       Thanks in advance.

    Hi Fabricio,
    We run result cache in our live forecast system on 11.2.0.2. We have result_cache_mode set to force and a cache of 20MB. The performance improvement we get with this is incredible, from a server running flat out to a server that looks like it's hardly doing anything. Of course it depends on exactly how your app works but we've seen no issues with it other than occassional waits for the result cache latch when there are a large number of requests - but even when this happens it's still way faster than running without result cache.
    Cheers,
    Harry
