This is Oracle Database 12c - Partitioning training course from Uplatz. This course takes a deep dive into the concepts of partitioning in Oracle Database 12c and implementing as well as managing the partitioning of the database. You will learn the benefits of partitioning for different types of workloads. Also, you will be introduced to Oracle Database Cloud Service.

This Oracle Database 12c training teaches you how to manage partitioning using Oracle Database 12c. Expert trainers from Uplatz will demonstrate the benefits of partitioning for different types of workloads and provide you knowledge about the syntax for partitioning maintenance operations.

Key features of the Oracle Database 12c – Partitioning training:

·       Apply partitioning strategies to enhance application performance
·       Use partitioning techniques to reduce impact of table and index maintenance
·       Use partitioning to decrease the time to refresh materialized views
·       Partition lob segments, nested tables and object tables
·       Understand the Oracle Partitioning methods for tables, index and materialized views available in Oracle Database 12c
·       Gain an understanding of the Oracle Database Cloud Service

The Oracle Database 12c Partitioning course will introduce you to several new partitioning enhancements, including partition maintenance operations on multiple partitions, heat maps, partial indexes for partitioned tables, interval-reference partitioning and online move partition capabilities. When the new enhancements are added to all the existing methods of partitioning, this large range of choices and capabilities requires that database administrators and data architects understand all partitioning methods and their appropriate uses. Proper use of partitioning can greatly benefit many types of applications including data warehouses, information life cycle management and large databases.
