【前言】现在CPU的发展已不仅朝着单个性能更好的方向了,而且还朝着多核数多核心的方向发展了。Oracle数据库大部分也都是利用单线程的串行方式在运行。通过并行(Parallel)操作特性,充分应用CPU的多核心特点,提高对数据的操作效率,满足在特定场景下对海量数据操作的需求。
OLTP系统最主要的核心还是数据的录入操作,而这些应用的场景并不适合于并行计算的方式。对于OLAP业务场景更适合并行的操作,并行也成为数据库仓库调优利器;
【使用类型和场景】
Oracle并行处理(Parallel Processing)特性主要是针对SQL语句处理的并行。目前Oracle提供支持并行的操作包括如下类型:
-
并行查询操作;
-
并行DDL,对数据对象的DDL操作;
-
并行DML,进行并行的数据更新修改;
在具体的应用场景上,有如下场景:
【设置并行和并行度】
-
Alter session force parallel query parallel n;(ALTER SESSION enable parallel query;) 单个SESSION里面
-
Alter table tab1 parallel n; 单个TABLE
-
Select /*+parallel(tab n)*/ from tab; Hint设置单个SQL
优先级:Hint > session > object
【并行度设置】并行度的设置是以多核CPU为核心的,所以并行度不能超过CPU的逻辑数量,Oracle官方文档介绍如下
If the PARALLEL clause is specified but no degree of parallelism is listed, the object gets the default DOP. Default parallelism uses a formula to determine the DOP based on the system configuration, as in the following:
-
For a single instance, DOP = PARALLEL_THREADS_PER_CPU x CPU_COUNT
-
For an Oracle RAC configuration, DOP = PARALLEL_THREADS_PER_CPU x CPU_COUNT x INSTANCE_COUNT
【实验测试】

以上是针对查询的操作,同样也是适用于DML操作的;
并行的使用并是简单的以上的几个语句的套用,在OLTP系统中使用需谨慎,用好了是一把调优的利器,用不好可能反而会被利器所伤。本文档也是是针对并行的一篇基础文章,后续会针对更深入的应用继续说明。
