04 - CHP - ISM Book Exc Solutions Q3

This document provides solutions to exercises from a chapter on information storage and management. It addresses an Oracle database using a 4KB block size that primarily performs sequential reads. The appropriate cache parameter values suggested are: a 4KB cache page size to match the database block size, allocating more cache to reads than writes given the sequential read operations, using fixed pre-fetching to optimize sequential reads, and setting a large value for write aside cache.

Chapter 4

3. An Oracle database uses a block size of 4 K for its I/O operation. The application that
uses this database primarily performs a sequential read operation. Suggest and explain
the appropriate values for the following cache parameters: cache page size, cache
allocation (read versus write), pre-fetch type, and write aside cache.
Solution/Hint:
Cache page size: 4K
Cache allocation (read versus write): more read cache
Pre-fetch type: fixed pre-fetch
Write aside cache: Large value
