12c Histograms pt.2

Oracle Scratchpad

In part 2 of this mini-series I’ll be describing the new mechanism for the simple frequency histogram and the logic of the Top-N frequency histogram. In part 3 I’ll be looking at the new hybrid histogram.

You need to know about the approximate NDV (number of distinct values) before you start examining the 12c implementation of the frequency and top-frequency histograms – but there’s a thumbnail sketch at the end of the posting if you need a quick reminder.

Upgrade Oracle Enterprise Manager 12c (12.1.0.2) to 12.1.0.3

And we’re still awaiting 12c Database certification for the Repository.
