What are the clusters? What are their advantages?
A cluster contains data from one or more tables. All these tables have one or
more columns in common. All the rows from all the tables that share the same
cluster key.
Example: cluster named workers with the cluster key column department, a cluster
size of 512 bytes, and storage parameter values
CREATE CLUSTER workers
(department NUMBER(4))
SIZE 512
STORAGE (initial 100K next 50K);
Advantages:
-
Clusters can speed up join queries.
-
Storage is saved since storing the field or fields comprising the Cluster Key
are stored once instead of multiple times.
-
Clustering does not does not affect the relational model (table schemas).
Oracle stores information in the form of tables. For eg you can have a table
named as climate in which you can store information about the climate of a
place in the form of columns...........
Open_form opens the indicated form. Call_form not just opens the indicated form,
but also keeps the parent form alive...............
What is Exception in Oracle?, What are the predefined oracle exceptions?,

Tablespace fragmentation can be prevented by using PCTINCREASE command.
PCTINCREASE is the percentage a new subsequent extent will grow...............
A lot has been written on legacy modernization in the past few years. Most of

outcomes of modernization............
