The Oracle Performance All-Star Webcast Series

As an IT professional responsible for database performance, your job is critical—and ultimately linked to your organization’s bottom line. Watch this archived webcast and gain the performance edge for your organization and yourself.

Webcast #1: "Score Big with Indexing"

The series kicked off with a webcast on one of the leading causes of poor database performance: incorrect indexing. Although it seems simple enough, indexing has complexities that are not immediately obvious. Join the huddle with Oracle expert Mike Ault as he discusses:

• Underindexing
• Overindexing
• Improper indexing
• Use of special indexes (e.g., bitmap indexes, bitmap join indexes, and index-only tables)
• Use of artificial indexes to ensure that proposed changes deliver improved performance before they go into production

By watching this webcast, you’ll learn best practices to implement in your own organization and achieve new levels of database performance.
