However, the data for the product dimension table may be derived from a separate operational system. Oracle supports composite range-list partitioning. Note that, if you use synchronous refresh, instead of performing Step 3, you must register the sales_01_2001 table using the DBMS_SYNC_REFRESH.REGISTER_PARTITION_OPERATION package. This parameter defines the number of background job queue processes and determines how many materialized views can be refreshed concurrently. There are, however, cases when the only refresh method available for an already built materialized view is complete refresh because the materialized view does not satisfy the conditions specified in the following section for a fast refresh. Oracle Database Advanced Replication for information showing how to use it in a replication environment, Oracle Database PL/SQL Packages and Types Reference for detailed information about the DBMS_MVIEW package. Refresh all the materialized views in a single procedure call. Similarly, if you specify P and out_of_place = true, then out-of-place PCT refresh is attempted. Rather than disallow the new sales transactions, you might choose to insert the sales transactions into the sales table. Recenlty at Attribution, we've been implementing materiazlied views to speed up slow queries. If the partitioned table was setup in a way that every partition is stored in a separate tablespace, you can archive (or transport) this table using Oracle Database's transportable tablespace framework before dropping the actual data (the tablespace). On a production database version 11.1.0.7, the fast refresh of a nested materialized view takes a lot of time comparing to the select statement used for the creation of the materialized view. Hi Tom,I had a quick question about why the Fast Refresh of a simple Materialized View subject_mview which is defined on one table, takes much longer than the drop and recreate of the same subject_mview Materialized view, as defined below:I have a log defined on the subject table :===== Use the DBMS_MVIEW.REFRESH procedure to refresh one or more materialized views. However, Materialized View is a physical copy, picture or snapshot of the base table. Data is loaded daily. The refresh involves reading the detail tables to compute the results for the materialized view. Note that the times table is not partitioned and hence can never allow for PCT refresh. Otherwise, insert the entire new record from the new_sales table into the sales table. For PCT to be available, the detail tables must be partitioned. Performing a refresh operation requires temporary space to rebuild the indexes and can require additional space for performing the refresh operation itself. Existing materialized view logs cannot be altered to add COMMIT SCN unless they are dropped and recreated. In this case, the detail table and the materialized view may contain say the last 12 months of data. Partitioning the materialized view also helps refresh performance as refresh can update the materialized view using parallel DML. The in-place refresh executes the refresh statements directly on the materialized view. PCT refresh provides a very efficient mechanism to maintain the materialized view in this case. However, the out-of-place refresh enables high materialized view availability during refresh, especially when refresh statements take a long time to finish. For example, the following specifies that cal_month_sales_mv be completely refreshed and fweek_pscat_sales_mv receive a fast refresh: If the refresh method is not specified, the default refresh method as specified in the materialized view definition is used. You can use fast refresh for materialized views that use the UNION ALL operator by providing a maintenance column in the definition of the materialized view. The PCT refresh method can be used if the modified base tables are partitioned and the modified base table partitions can be used to identify the affected partitions or portions of data in the materialized view. For a materialized view with aggregates, for fast refresh to be possible: The SELECT list must contain all … In out-of-place refresh, the entire or affected portions of a materialized view are computed into one or more outside tables. PCT-based refresh on a materialized view is enabled only if all the conditions described in "About Partition Change Tracking" are satisfied. Each of these materialized views gets rewritten against the one prior to it in the list). Partitioning the underlying detail tables can reduce the amount of time taken to perform the refresh task. Moreover, you should not use CONSIDER FRESH unless you have taken manual action to ensure that the materialized view is indeed fresh. Furthermore, the sales table has been partitioned by month. So an optional WHERE clause is added to the INSERT clause of the MERGE. Oracle Database VLDB and Partitioning Guide. To use the refresh concurrently, you must define at least one unique index on your materialized view. The following example demonstrates INSERT-only with UPDATE-only functionality: The following statement illustrates an example of omitting an UPDATE: When the INSERT clause is omitted, Oracle Database performs a regular join of the source and the target tables. During refresh, all SELECT queries see that duplicated data, and after the process, all queries have access to newly created view, and duplicates remain as dead rows. But this reduces the speed of operations during this. For example, to perform a fast refresh on the materialized view cal_month_sales_mv, the DBMS_MVIEW package would be called as follows: Multiple materialized views can be refreshed at the same time, and they do not all have to use the same refresh method. For out-of-place fast refresh, there are the following restrictions: No UNION ALL, grouping sets or outer joins are permitted, Not allowed for materialized join views when more than one base table is modified with mixed DML statements. For PCT refresh, if the materialized view is partitioned appropriately, this uses TRUNCATE PARTITION to delete rows in the affected partitions of the materialized view, which is faster than a delete. While a job is running, you can query the V$SESSION_LONGOPS view to tell you the progress of each materialized view being refreshed. This procedure refreshes all materialized views. This can be a very time-consuming process, especially if there are huge amounts of data to be read and processed. The complete refresh involves executing the query that defines the materialized view. It also enables you to achieve a very high degree of availability because the materialized views that are being refreshed can be used for direct access and query rewrite during the execution of refresh statements. So the REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW CONCURRENTLY statement is very slow, moreover the trigger sets it to run after each operation 1 on the table that holds the data to be indexed. My Oracle Support provides customers with access to over a million knowledge articles and a vibrant support community of peers and Oracle experts. This refresh process is completed by either switching between the materialized view and the outside table or partition exchange between the affected partitions and the outside tables. These steps show how the load process proceeds to add the data for a new month (January 2001) to the table sales. This is very common in data warehousing environment where you may have nested materialized views or materialized views at different levels of some hierarchy. However, sometimes other data might need to be removed from a data warehouse. In a data warehouse environment, referential integrity constraints are normally enabled with the NOVALIDATE or RELY options. Oracle Database Administrator's Guide for further details about partitioning and table compression. '), Oracle chooses the refresh method based on the following attempt order: log-based fast refresh, PCT refresh, and complete refresh. Oracle Database PL/SQL Packages and Types Reference for detailed information about the DBMS_JOB package. An alternative method to utilize less space is to re-create the sales table one partition at a time: Continue this process for each partition in the sales table. Otherwise, JOB_QUEUES is not used. This parameter works with all existing refresh method (F, P, C, ?). You can use Oracle's data compression to minimize the space usage of the old data. For example, every night, week, or month, new data is brought into the data warehouse. All of the operations associated with data loading are occurring on a separate sales_01_2001 table. Only the rows from the destination of the MERGE can be deleted. If many changes happening and many queries running on master table simultaneously with refresh time,then again it will slow down the materialized view refresh The performance of source and target database and network utlization should also be checked If the materialized view is being refreshed currently, you can check the progress using First, the new data is loaded with minimal resource utilization. For example, the following is not recommended: Also, try not to mix different types of conventional DML statements if possible. This offers better availability than in-place complete refresh. If a new product was introduced on Monday, then it is possible for that product's product_id to appear in the sales data of the data warehouse before that product_id has been inserted into the data warehouses product table. Note that query rewrite is not supported during the switching or partition exchange operation. For example, a materialized view with a UNION ALL operator can be made fast refreshable as follows: The form of a maintenance marker column, column MARKER in the example, must be numeric_or_string_literal AS column_alias, where each UNION ALL member has a distinct value for numeric_or_string_literal. The DWA_ tables in the default Oracle Communications Data Model are this type of materialized view. The advantage of using this approach is you never have to remember to refresh the materialized view. If set to TRUE, then all refreshes are done in one transaction. First, you can physically delete all data from the database by dropping the partition containing the old data, thus freeing the allocated space: Also, you can exchange the old partition with an empty table of the same structure; this empty table is created equivalent to steps 1 and 2 described in the load process. As can be seen from the partial sample output from EXPLAIN_MVIEW, any partition maintenance operation performed on the sales table allows PCT fast refresh. Postgres 9.3 has introduced the first features related to materialized views. GET_MV_DEPENDENCIES provides a list of the immediate (or direct) materialized view dependencies for an object. To maintain the materialized view after such operations used to require manual maintenance (see also CONSIDER FRESH) or complete refresh. Users can perform a complete refresh at any time after the materialized view is created. When there have been some partition maintenance operations on the detail tables, this is the only method of fast refresh that can be used. It may be refreshed later manually using REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW. Example 7-9 Conditional Inserts with MERGE Statements. Use Oracle's bulk loader utility or direct-path INSERT (INSERT with the APPEND hint for loads). Creating the materialized views as BUILD DEFERRED only creates the metadata for all the materialized views. Key Differences Between View and Materialized View. Some sites might prefer not to refresh all of their materialized views at the same time: as soon as some underlying detail data has been updated, all materialized views using this data become stale. If it can be determined that only inserts or deletes will occur on all the detail tables, then the materialized view log does not require the SEQUENCE clause. If a refresh fails during commit time, the list of materialized views that has not been refreshed is written to the alert log, and you must manually refresh them along with all their dependent materialized views. and out_of_place = true, out-of-place fast refresh are attempted first, then out-of-place PCT refresh, and finally out-of-place complete refresh. Both in-place refresh and out-of-place refresh achieve good performance in certain refresh scenarios. Thus, processing only the changes can result in a very fast refresh time. In the case of full refresh, this requires temporary sort space to rebuild all indexes during refresh. For materialized views using BUILD DEFERRED, a complete refresh must be requested before it can be used for the first time. For details, see Synchronous Refresh. So we can use the CONCURRENTLY option to avoid this condition. Every month, new data for a month is added to the table and the oldest month is deleted (or maybe archived). When using DBMS_MVIEW.REFRESH with JOB_QUEUES, remember to set atomic to FALSE. The exchange operation can be viewed as a publishing mechanism. Place the new data into a separate table, Create an intermediate table to hold the new merged information. This approach is much more efficient than a series of DELETE statements, and none of the data in the sales table needs to be moved. You might prefer this technique when dropping and rebuilding indexes is more efficient than maintaining them. The business users of the warehouse may decide that they are no longer interested in seeing any data related to XYZ Software, so this data should be deleted. Another solution is materialized view. If job queues are enabled and there are many materialized views to refresh, it is faster to refresh all of them in a single command than to call them individually. Having indices in a materialized view … A typical constraint would be: If the partitioned table sales has a primary or unique key that is enforced with a global index structure, ensure that the constraint on sales_pk_jan01 is validated without the creation of an index structure, as in the following: The creation of the constraint with ENABLE clause would cause the creation of a unique index, which does not match a local index structure of the partitioned table. This makes the join between the source and target table more efficient. In the case of ON COMMIT, the materialized view is changed every time a transaction commits, thus ensuring that the materialized view always contains the latest data. You use an ALTER TABLE ... ADD PARTITION statement. Using a single INSERT statement (which can be parallelized), the product table can be altered to reflect the new products: Occasionally, it is necessary to remove large amounts of data from a data warehouse. In PostgreSQL, version 9.3 and newer natively support materialized views. An important decision to make before performing a refresh operation is whether the refresh needs to be recoverable. It can be used for wrapping commonly used complex queries. Oracle Database computes the dependencies and refreshes the materialized views in the right order. If set to FALSE, Oracle can optimize refresh by using parallel DML and truncate DDL on a materialized views. This is shown in "PCT Fast Refresh for Materialized Views: Scenario 2". The refresh method can be incremental or a complete refresh. Materialized views can be refreshed either on demand or at regular time intervals. In addition, it helps to avoid potential problems such as materialized view container tables becoming fragmented over time or intermediate refresh results being seen. Process the old data separately using other techniques. This chapter discusses how to refresh materialized views, which is a key element in maintaining good performance and consistent data when working with materialized views in a data warehousing environment. If the process that is executing DBMS_MVIEW.REFRESH is interrupted or the instance is shut down, any refresh jobs that were executing in job queue processes are requeued and continue running. This section describes the following two typical scenarios where partitioning is used with refresh: Partitioning for Refreshing Data Warehouses: Scenario 1, Partitioning for Refreshing Data Warehouses: Scenario 2. Thus, although a given row of the destination table meets the delete condition, if it does not join under the ON clause condition, it is not deleted. These basic types have been enhanced in Oracle Database 12c, Release 1 with a new refresh option called out-of-place refresh. You must consider the number of slaves needed for the refresh statement. This is as opposed t o a straight-up view, which does re-execute the query every time that you access the data in it. If then in turn the SQL query on the foreign database server hangs, e.g. In data warehouses, materialized views normally contain aggregates. That is, perform one type of change (direct-path INSERT or DML) and then refresh the materialized view. This would again prevent using various optimizations during fast refresh. This exchanges the new, empty partition with the newly loaded table. Try to optimize the sequence of conventional mixed DML operations, direct-path INSERT and the fast refresh of materialized views. Use the same DBMS_MVIEW procedures on nested materialized views that you use on regular materialized views. After the first compressed partition is added, no additional actions are necessary for all subsequent operations involving compressed partitions. To do this, you may want to consider using the DELETE clause in a MERGE statement, as in the following example: Thus when a row is updated in products, Oracle checks the delete condition D.PROD_STATUS = "OBSOLETE", and deletes the row if the condition yields true. The EXCHANGE operation preserves the indexes and constraints that were already present on the sales_01_2001 table. The following example illustrates how to use this clause: The materialized view refresh automatically uses the commit SCN-based materialized view log to save refresh time. This section illustrates examples of determining the PCT and freshness information for materialized views and their detail tables. The only disadvantage is the time required to complete the commit will be slightly longer because of the extra processing involved. The select statement itself finishes in about 8 seconds. Refreshing a materialized view automatically updates all of its indexes. The partitioning scheme of the data warehouse is often crucial in determining the efficiency of refresh operations in the data warehouse load process. To check if a materialized view is fresh or stale, issue the following statement: If the compile_state column shows NEEDS COMPILE, the other displayed column values cannot be trusted as reflecting the true status. They're a new feature in Postgres 9.3. Fast refresh of your materialized views is usually efficient, because instead of having to recompute the entire materialized view, the changes are applied to the existing data. Beginning with Oracle Database 12c Release 1, a new refresh option is available to improve materialized view refresh performance and availability. The exchange command would fail. Thus, you must have enough available tablespace or auto extend turned on. Note that materialized view logs are required regardless of whether you use direct load or conventional DML. This includes referential integrity constraints. For ON COMMIT materialized views, where refreshes automatically occur at the end of each transaction, it may not be possible to isolate the DML statements, in which case keeping the transactions short will help. For materialized views that use the log-based fast refresh method, a materialized view log and/or a direct loader log keep a record of changes to the base tables. If you use REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW CONCURRENTLY option be aware of what @Smudge indicated in the comments. To disable logging and run incremental refresh non-recoverably, use the ALTER MATERIALIZED VIEW ... NOLOGGING statement prior to refreshing. This maintenance does not affect the availability of the existing global index structures. We use the CONCURRENTLY option to REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW to ensure that the reports page stays available while our report is generating.
