Database Administration (DBAM)

Managing Data and Concurrency in


Oracle
Managing Data Using DML
• - DML (Data Manipulation Language): Used to
modify data in a database.
• - Common DML Commands:
• - INSERT: Adds new records.
• - UPDATE: Modifies existing records.
• - DELETE: Removes records.
• - MERGE: Combines INSERT and UPDATE.
• - Best Practices:
• - Always use WHERE clause to prevent
Database Transactions
• - A transaction is a sequence of SQL
operations executed as a single unit.
• - ACID Properties:
• - Atomicity: All or nothing.
• - Consistency: Maintains database integrity.
• - Isolation: Transactions execute
independently.
• - Durability: Committed transactions persist.
Executing SQL Statements
• - Steps:
• 1. Connect to Oracle Database.
• 2. Execute SQL commands.
• 3. Validate results and commit if necessary.
• 4. Use EXPLAIN PLAN for performance tuning.
• - Optimization Tips:
• - Use indexes for faster searches.
• - Avoid unnecessary columns in SELECT
queries.
Transaction Control Commands
• - COMMIT: Saves all changes made in the
transaction.
• - ROLLBACK: Reverts all changes since the last
COMMIT.
• - SAVEPOINT: Creates a point within a
transaction to which changes can be rolled
back.
• - Example:
• INSERT INTO employees (id, name) VALUES
(101, 'John Doe');
Monitoring and Resolving Locking
Conflicts
• - Locking Mechanisms:
• - Implicit Locks: Automatically applied.
• - Explicit Locks: LOCK TABLE, SELECT ... FOR
UPDATE.
• - Common Issues:
• - Deadlocks: Two transactions waiting for
each other.
• - Blocking Sessions: One transaction holding
a lock.
Summary and Best Practices
• - Use DML statements effectively with proper
WHERE clauses.
• - Ensure transactions follow ACID properties.
• - Optimize SQL statements for better
performance.
• - Apply transaction control commands wisely.
• - Monitor locks and resolve conflicts promptly.
Questions & Discussion
• - Open floor for questions.
• - Discuss real-world scenarios.
• - Provide additional learning resources.
