{
  "kind": "oracle",
  "type": "read"
}

Best PracticesCopied!

Performance Optimization

  1. Index Usage:

    • Create appropriate indexes based on query patterns

    • Use Oracle Explain Plan to analyze query performance

    • Consider function-based indexes for complex queries

  2. Query Efficiency:

    • Use bind variables instead of literal values

    • Implement appropriate WHERE clauses

    • Consider using ROWNUM or ROW_FETCH for pagination

Security

  1. Authentication:

    • Use strong authentication methods

    • Implement the principle of least privilege

    • Consider Oracle Advanced Security options

  2. Data Protection:

    • Use Oracle Network Encryption

    • Implement proper auditing

    • Consider Transparent Data Encryption for sensitive data

Error Handling

  1. Exception Handling:

    • Implement appropriate exception blocks

    • Log relevant error information

    • Design recovery mechanisms for critical operations

  2. Connection Management:

    • Implement connection pooling

    • Handle connection issues gracefully

    • Ensure all connections are properly closed
