What's the default compression DB uses on data?

I read that prefix compression is used on the keys. But what about the data values? We've been trying out in-memory databases and the memory usage we're seeing is way less than the data we're putting in; without even considering the keys and data structure overhead. For instance, with a billion 64 bit integers as values stored against keys that are 10 to 16 bytes long, top is showing resident memory usage of around 5 GB. That seems almost too good to be true. Is there some hidden cost we're not looking at?

data value compression needs to be done at the application level.  We do prefix compression on the data keys only.
thanks

  • What are the pros and cons using Active Data Guard vs Data Guard?

    My understanding is that Active Data Guard is an additional database option for Oracle 11gR2 Enterprise Edition. I need to know the pros and cons using Active Data Guard vs Data Guard in order to decide whether to get pay extra for the Active Data Guard.
    Thanks for any help.

    Before jumping in to Active Data Guard, one needs to evaluate :
    a. Is there really a need to run queries on the Standby ? The Standby could / should be at a remote site so queries are "across the network". Depending on the nature of the queries and the volume of output, the "performance" of the queries may not seem to be the same.
    b. If the database is not in Maximum Protection mode, the data "seen" at the standby may not be in "real-time" synch
    c. Not all applications are truely read-only when querying. Some applications use "jobs" that write to tables when querying. Such would not work with Active DataGuard. (example : EBusiness Suite). There are very complicated ways of handling this -- and one needs to consider if the complications can be introduced and supported.
    Over the network accessing standby read only is really not an good idea, I think no one will compare performance with primary and standby,
    But some of them they want to validate data which are very critical, as it is matching with primary or not, Its an added advantage with ACTIVE DATAGUARD
    Prior to that until unless stop MRP, open database and then we need to validate, So there is an interruption of recovery, I can say its also an advantage where there is no interruption of recovery.

  • If Firefox 20 is in Private Browsing mode then a possible persona is disabled and the default theme is used - oh god, no - what can I do to keep both?

    Cor-el answered on the 4.4.13: " If Firefox 20 is in Private Browsing mode then a possible persona is disabled and the default theme is used. So you will have to make a choice."
    Can I go back to an older version of FF? I really do not want to choose. Will that problem be fixed in FF 21? I really love Firefox, it has always been my favorite browser - but giving up the Personas will be hard and I don't understand why I have to...
    How do I reinstall an older version of FF? Is there another solution?

    Remember to use the per window Private Browsing when you are doing banking or other confidential / financial work.
    One option is now
    * '''Firefox Button -> New Private Browsing Window'''
    * (Linux / xp File -> New Private Browsing Window)
    * see [[Private Browsing - Browse the web without saving information about the sites you visit]]
    You may even benefit from saving your History.It improves the functionality of the location bar / ''awesome-bar ''

  • What is the default user name and password for oracle databse 10g

    Hi: gurus, I just recently installed the oracle 10g personal edition and trying to log on to the enterprise manger, but can't figure it out the user name and password, can some one help me and tell me what is the default user name and password to logon to the oracle instance. BTW during the installation I choose two passowrds one for the schema and one for the global database orcl. I wonder will I be using one of these passwords. Still I don't have any clue for the "User Name".
    thanks

    system/manager and sys/change_on_install are still valid default passwords when database is manually created. If DBCA was used, passwords will be those defined at creation time inside DBCA.
    In case passwords have been forgotten, those can be reset:
    From an OS commnad prompt, set ORACLE_SID, ORACLE_HOME and PATH environment variables, just to make sure you are pointing to the right Oracle Home installation, and issue:
    OS> sqlplus / as sysdba
    SQL> alter user sys identified by yourNewSysPassword;
    SQL> alter user system identified by yourNewSystemPassword;
    And you're done with it.

  • What are the permitted compression techniques for PDF/A-1?

    The PDF/A-1 standard does not specify how compression is performed. What are the permitted compression techniques for PDF/A-1?
    The information I have gathered (not sure if all are true)
    LZW should not be used
    JPEG2000 may not be used
    Few say, JPEG can be used but its a lossy compression. (PDF standard clearly states lossy compression can't be used)
    Also, how to figure out whether a particular file is PDF/A-1a or PDF/A-1b and what kind of compressions are used in that file?
    Thanks in advance.

    For better or worse, ISO specifications are written in a language from a parallel universe.    After dealing with ISO standards for a while, you learn what specific words really mean. I should know - I am chair of the ISO PDF/X task force and co-chair of the PDF/VT task force.
    The word should does not specify a requirement. PDF/A does not prohibit lossy compression.
    JPEG is always a lossy compression. There is a mode of JPEG2000 compression that is indeed lossless. Note that JPEG and JPEG2000 are totally different compression schemes. (I believe that PDF/A-1 as well as PDF/X-1a and PDF/X-3, based on older versions of the PDF specification do not permit JPEG2000. PDF/A-2 based on ISO32000-1 and PDF/X-4 based on PDF 1.6 do allow for JPEG2000.)
    ZIP compression is lossless.

  • What is the default value of EO_INBOUND_PARALLEL

    Hi Gurus,
    We are on PI 7.0 EHP 1. We have not set the parameter EO_INBOUND_PARALLEL. Does this mean there is only one inbound queue registered by default if the default value is 1? However, I seem to recall that when we had issues with messages stuck in queues, I have seen more than one XBTI8 queues.
    Please help me with my doubt. thanks!

    Hi,
    Thanks for the replies.
    How about the parameter EO_INBOUND_TO_OUTBOUND and EO_OUTBOUND_PARALLEL?
    I assume by default EO_INBOUND_TO_OUTBOUND is set to 1?
    Then what is the default value for EO_OUTBOUND_PARALLEL? Plus to set this parameter you need to specify the receiver, in this case, is it true that EO_OUTBOUND_PARALLEL is not set at all so only one outbound queue? this does not make sense. Or maybe by default EO_INBOUND_TO_OUTBOUND is set to 0 so EO_OUTBOUND_PARALLEL is not used at all?
    Thanks.

  • What is the default staging mode when it is: (not specified) ?

    Hi All,
    What is the default staging mode when none is specified?
    As per docs, there are three: stage, no stage and external stage
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17904_01/apirefs.1111/e13952/taskhelp/deployment/SetAServerStagingMode.html
    Many thanks.
    Running Weblogic 10.3.5.0 on OEL.

    "stage" directory means that the EAR file will be temporarily copied to that location and will be used only when the application source directory is not available OR when the administration server is down.
    It is like a local copy of the source directory for your application.
    Sometimes, during restart/redeployment, the managed server could pick the application files from the stage directory.
    But, in general if you use the "Update" option in "Deployment", the files in the stage directory are replaced by the files from the "source" directory.
    What I suspect here is in PROD, if you might have any permission issues with the stage directory?
    Can you please check that the stage directory is owned by the user running the server process AND that the directory permissions is set to 755. And not only directory the files also should inherit the same ownership and permissions.
    That is the only thing I can suspect.

  • What Is The Best Setting To Use To Import Music?Please Help.

    Hi, All
    I have got an 80GB Apple Video iPod And I am still trying to figure out how to work it as I am new to using iPods.
    What is the best setting to use to import CD Music and Music from the Internet to iTunes?? as I would like to listen to the highest quality there is on iTunes and my 80GB Apple Video iPod.
    The settings are: ACC Encoder, AIFF Encoder, Apple Lossless Encoder, MP3 Encoder, WAV Encoder. If you have not got them to hand.
    Many Thanks For Reading This And Replying To It, Much Appreciated!!
    I Hope You All Have a VERY Merry New Year!!
    Kind Regards, Rocky Robin

    There really is no BEST setting. The "best" setting is the one that sounds the best to you.
    Having said that, you also asked what setting provides the highest quality audio. In that case, you need to use a lossless format, such as AIFF, WAV, or Apple Lossless. MP3 and AAC are both compressed formats, and will not provide as good of an audio quality as a lossless format.
    My personal preference would be Apple Lossless, but any of the lossless formats will produce an almost identical quality to the CD track.
    Keep in mind, the files will be quite large.

  • What are the advantages/disadvantages of using PS/CS5 in 64bit over 32bit please?

    What are the advantages/disadvantages of using PS/CS5 in 64bit over 32bit please?

    From a practical perspective, besides the 64 bit version being a bit faster at just about everything, limitations on document size are lifted in the 64 bit version.  Essentially, how much can do is limited only by how much RAM you have installed in your system.  You can do things like have larger documents, deeper history, etc. and have it all work quickly.
    On the other hand, many 3rd party plug-ins, especially older ones, only provide 32 bit versions, which will only run in 32 bit Photoshop.
    Both 32 and 64 bit versions are installed by default.  It's important to note that most of the preferences are separate between the two, so you can have two slightly different setups that might help with specialty operations you might need.  This gets pretty subtle, but for example I keep the 32 bit version configured with only 1 cache level, so all previews of high bit depth images are always composited in high bit depth.  This aids me with some aspects of astroimage processing.  It's slower, but more accurate.  By contrast I have more cache levels configured for my 64 bit version, so that's faster for general photography work.
