Oracle Certified Professional (OCP) – Performance Tuning (11g/12c/19c)
What will the learner be able to do after this course?
After completing the Oracle Performance Tuning course, the learner will be able to analyze and optimize poorly performing SQL queries, configure memory components, and fine-tune database parameters for improved efficiency. For example, in a retail application facing slow report generation, the learner can identify high-cost queries using AWR reports, rewrite inefficient SQL joins, and create appropriate indexes—reducing report generation time from minutes to seconds and significantly improving user experience.
