Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> FLATTENED TABLE costing more than JOINING two tables
We are using a flattened table for the Reports. This table is called
as JP_HISTORY_TBL. This table is like a Data Warehouse having all the
required fields for the reports in a flattened structure. So it has
the codes as well as the description. For Example it has the Member
ID
as well as the member name.
Prior to this development it had only the Member ID and we used to
fetch the Member ID from its corresponding SET UP table(PERSON
Table).
We thought of reducing the Joins and got the Member name also into
the
JP_HISTORY_TBL...
Similarly we have got the other DESCRIPTION data as well into the
JP_HISTORY_TBL.
We expected this to reduce the query cost but oppposed to this the
query cost is getting increased and it is taking a lot of time to get
executed.
We are not able to figure our why this is happening..Is this because
JP_HISTORY_TBL is a very large table containing a lot of
TRANSACTIONAL
data ? Then how do they create the datawarehouse with all the
flattened information ?
For example
Select Member_ID,MEMBER_NAME from JP_HISTORY_TBL is costlier than
this
select A.MEMBER_ID,B.MEMBER_NAME from JP_HISTORY_TBL A,PS_RD_PERSON B
where a.memberid = b.memberid
SELECT avg_row_len,chain_cnt, num_rows
FROM user_tables WHERE table_name = 'JP_HISTORY_TBL'
query result :-
198 3006586 5797557
