How to take advantage of parallel SQL select?

Is it possible to take advantage of a parallel SQL select by specifying computations over the constituent subsets before they are consolidated? For example, suppose I have a very large table of sales employees, and I want to generate a sales report for each one in an efficient manner. Would it be possible to perform a parallel SQL select over the entire table, and pass each subset of employees to a report generation batch job? Or, perhaps this is a poor strategy and you have a better approach in mind.
Thanks in advance for your reply.

Parallel Query (PQ) is an Oracle feature that parallelises a vanilla standard SQL for you.
In other words, when designing the SQL you do not design it for each parallel process processing a specific set of data.
The CBO determines all that. Whether it can be done in parallel (not all SQL is equal and not all SQL can be executed using PQ). How many PX slaves from the PQ pool can be used/are available for use. What range of data each of the processes will be processing. Etc.
Suggest you read Parallelize the Workload in the Oracle® Database Performance Tuning Guide.

  • How to take advantage of 802.11ac wi-fi with AirPort Extreme?

    Greetings. I will be purchasing a new iMac that will support 802.11ac wi-fi and would like to take advantage of this by using the Apple AirPort Extreme but I'm not sure how. I currently have a modem (Cisco DPC3825) from my internet provider, which does not support 802.11ac. If I were to connect the AirPort Extreme to my modem (DPC3825) via an Ethernet cable and then (wirelessly) connect my new iMac to the netowrk, would I receive 802.11ac or just b/g/n still? In addition, when I connect the AirPort Extreme to my modem, will it create two networks (i.e. one network for the AirPort Extremem + my original wifi network) or can you merge it into one network? Hopefully what I'm asking makes sense. Thank you.

    If I were to connect the AirPort Extreme to my modem (DPC3825) via an Ethernet cable and then (wirelessly) connect my new iMac to the netowrk, would I receive 802.11ac or just b/g/n still?
    802.11ac would be received by the iMac if it connected to the AirPort Extreme wireless signal....and....the iMac was in close proximity to the AirPort Extreme.
    802.11ac uses the 5 GHz frequency, and these signals only work well then the router and computer are in the same room or have a line-of-sight relationship  to each other, or very close to that ideal.
    In addition, when I connect the AirPort Extreme to my modem, will it create two networks
    The AirPort Extreme will create a network with two bands or frequencies.....one  2.4 GHz for "b", "g" and "n" wireless devices and another band, the 5 GHz signal for "n" and "ac" devices.
    If you assign the same name to  the AirPort Extreme network that you use for your existing network, and both routers are using the same wireless security settings and password, then everything will act like one "big" network.
    If you assign a different name to the AirPort Extreme wireless network, then you will have two different networks....one produced by your existing router and the other produced by the AirPort Extreme.
    If you move from one area to another, you will have to log off of one network and log back onto the other network.

  • How to take advantage of H.264 video streaming of webcam BCC950

    We used flex 4.6 to develop an web app using Logitech webcam of BCC950, We used Graphedit of Directdraw to know BCC950 has pin 0 to support i320,RGB24,and mjpg stream, and pin 3 to support H.264 stream. We also set h264videostreamingsettings in as code to ask for H.264 data directly from the webcam, but from the CPU consuming we can judge flash player only fetch pin 0 uncompressed data instead of H.264 data directly. We need to take advantage of BCC950 H.264 support to get webcam hardware compressed H.264 streaming data to avoid compression by CPU/software. As we know flash does not give programmers choice to define the pin to get data, then what we need to do to make sure we can get H.264 video stream from the webcam directly? thanks. Henry

    ...well I did follow that article on playing an h264/mpeg4
    video in flash. It works well, but how would you add playback
    controls?
    FLVPlayback component only allows you to source an FLV video
    not h264/mpeg4.
    This is probably a simple as3 answer...but I am not
    knowledgeable on as3 to know what code to add.
    Any suggests or direction that I should look would be great.
    In the meantime I am researching actionscript 3 to find and anwer.

    You will see this error if the search condition was entered with an invalid or missing relational operator.
    You need to include a valid relational operator such as
      =, !=, ^=, <>, >, <, >=, <=, ALL, ANY, [NOT] BETWEEN, EXISTS, [NOT] IN, IS [NOT] NULL, or [NOT] LIKE in the condition. in the sql statement.

  • How to use variables in an sql select statement.

    Hi, I have seen examples using the update, but nothing using a select statement.
    I have four variables I am getting from drop down menus in my JSP I set the user selected items to strings.
    How would I create the select statement like this:
    .String XName = request.getParameter("UserInputX");
    rsInResult = stmtInResult.executeQuery("SELECT ColumxX FROM TableZ WHERE ColumnX = XName")Obviously it tries to read "XName" as a column and of course can't find it, how would I set it up to have it see the Value of XName and not the literal XName.

    read this:
    rsInResult = stmtInResult.executeQuery("SELECT ColumxX FROM TableZ WHERE ColumnX = '"+XName+"')
    {code}
    better way is PreparedStatement:
    {code}
         // example code to change password to an user in the USERS table
         String newPWD = "my password";
         String user = "luxjava";
         PreparedStatement prepStat;
         String updatePWD = "UPDATE LOGISTIC.USERS "+
                                  "SET logistic.users.password = ? "+
                                  "WHERE logistic.users.username = ?";
         prepStat = ql.conDb.prepareStatement(updatePWD);
         prepStat.setString(1, newPwd);
         prepStat.setString(2, user);
         int zeroNotFound = prepStat.executeUpdate();
         if (zeroNotFound==0)
              ql.conDb.rollback();
              prepStat.close();
         else
              ql.conDb.commit();
              prepStat.close();
    {code}

  • Save SQL select output as html page on another box.

    How can I save a simple sql select output on another server as a html page?

    Hi,
    You can use the Oracle product WebDB (Oracle Portal) to create reports in HTML over the DB (simplest way).
    Instead You can use SQL*Plus on the remote server (where You want to spool), enable the spool to file (using SPOOL) and create the select as
    SELECT 'html tags' &#0124; &#0124; field/s &#0124; &#0124; 'html tags'
    FROM your_table;Using this solution You have to manually "draw" the report.
    Hope this helps.

  • How to take .tbl file?

    hi team,
    Could you pls tell me about how to take .tbl files from SQL server. Since i need to bulk insert a value into another table for this datafile need to be in .tbl format.
    FYR.
    BULK INSERT AdventureWorks.Sales.SalesOrderDetail

    Regards, Muthukumar Balu

    Hi Muthukumar Balu,
    According to your description, we need to verify if you want to load data to SQL Azure database, if yes, the Bulk Insert T-SQL statement is not supported on SQL Azure. However, other data migration tools are available, such as the SQL Server BCP Utility,
    SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS), Import and Export Data and SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS). You could even use the Bulk Copy API to author your own customized data upload application. For more information, see:
    http://blogs.msdn.com/b/sqlcat/archive/2010/07/30/loading-data-to-sql-azure-the-fast-way.aspx
     If you just want to load data to SQL Server database, I will help you move the thread to the related forum, It is appropriate and more experts will assist you. As other post, you can use the TPC DbGen utility to generate test Data (.tbl
    file), then execute the
    bulk insert T-SQL statement in SQL Server database.

  • User Field sql select

    How to get user fields with sql select?
    I know it is for example "select T0.U_userfield from OITM T0", but it is not working from outside. The user fields seems not to be  in the table when connecting the database directly through ODBC.

    It should, but surprisingly it does not.
    "SELECT dbo.OITM.ItemCode, dbo.OITM.U_TcId FROM dbo.OITM WHERE dbo.OITM.U_TcId is not null"
    is working in sql studio, while
    "SELECT dbo_OITM.ItemCode, dbo_OITM.U_TcId FROM dbo_OITM WHERE dbo_OITM.U_TcId is not null"
    is not working in MsAccess through ODBC. It is missing U_TcId (it is asking for the parameter dbo_OITM.U_TcId).
    SELECT dbo_OITM.ItemCode FROM dbo_OITM;
    is however working also in MsAccess.

  • How do i take one layer with multiple selections...

    how do i take one layer with multiple selections and make those selections their own layer?

    Yes sir. It w was really hard to explain. It is discontiguous segments that are separated by transparent areas. And I want those non transparent areas to be on their own layer. I have a photo shop file that has a bunch of buttons on them and they are on a transparent background. It is one layer. I want to select all the buttons and put them on their own layers. I can do this manually by selecting a button and cmd Just to a new layer, but when I have 200 buttons it is a daunting task.

    Thanks inadvance.

    You can use the interface ResultSetMetaData,below are some methods of it.
    int getColumnCount()
    Returns the number of columns in this ResultSet object.
    String getColumnName(int column)
    Get the designated column's name.
    int getColumnType(int column)
    Retrieves the designated column's SQL type.
    for more infomation ,you can refer to JDBC Online Document.

    Thanks,

    The select activities  ("Select from Oracle," Select from SQL Server," etc.) against database already return tables.  Use one of the database adapters to do your select, and it will already be in a table form.  Just put your query in the select and identify the columns in your result table. The online help or the database adapter guides in the product documentation can help.
