		<description><![CDATA[When you install Oracle, on a very high abstraction level, you copy files to your HD. Nothing more nothing less.
After this process, you got an Oracle installation: a system, with at least one directory where Oracle’s programs reside, but you don’t have any Instance. 
 
An Oracle Instance is the software (and memory) that Oracle [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Oracle is a relational data base (DB).It is a program that use the relational model (proposed in 1969 by Edgard Codd) based on predicate logic and set theory.
Table&#8217;s data are treated as sets: so you can have the set of users, the set of employees, the set of books, the set of cars etc.

Finally I found a motivation to work again on this blog.
The idea is to write on basic Oracle concept and to create a kind of &#8220;Introduction to Oracle&#8221;.
Hope that it will help.

Now, here I want to talk about Oracle basic concepts.

insert into tab1
select 1,1,&#8217;first&#8217; from dual
and
insert into tab2
select 1,1,&#8217;first&#8217; from dual
this work fine, but we got Oracle 9 and 10 nowadays so we can:
Insert all
into tab1
into tab2
select 1,1,&#8217;first&#8217; from dual
and this give us:
ORA-00918: column ambiguously defined
  
A bit strange.

(copyright  by my Boss)
But how can you examine what&#8217;s going on? Can you &#8220;see&#8221; what Oracle is thinking?
Yes you can!

We can explain the execution plan (i.e. what the DB is going do to) by using the explain plan sql command. Naturally if you use Sql*Navigator or Toad or a similar program, [...]]]></description>

One subset is the v$ views (v$iews for short) subset.

V$iews are dynamic views used to track down performance problems.
