Can anybody clear my dillema regarding the following:-
Let's say I have created a materialize view with the query below
Select c1,c2,c3,c4,sum(c1),sum(c2),sum(c3),sum(c4)
from t1
group by c1,c2,c3,c4

Now say another query is
Select c1,c4,sum(c1),sum(c3),sum(c4)
from t1
group by c1,c4
Will this 2nd query use the above materialze view.

Thanks in advance

You appear to be summing the same columns as you are grouping by, are you sure that's right?

If you want to know if it uses the materialized view just trace the session and check for yourself.

It will use it provided you fulfil all the requirements for query rewrite.

analyze your MView with dbms_mview.explain_rewrite procedure
here

Sorry the sum() are on different columns. Modified:-

This should be the main query for the MV
select c1,c2,c3,c4,sum(c5),sum(c6),sum(c7),sum(c8)
from t1
group by ci,c2,c3,c4

select c1,c2,c3,c4,sum(c5),sum(c6),sum(c7),sum(c8)
from t1
group by ci,c2,c3,c4

Actually the table t1 is having 47Million rows. Execution time of the above query is 6to9 minutes.But when the total rows are fetched it is taking more than 45 minutes. As this multitable insert is done based on this type of query how can I reduce the fetching time so that the multitable inserts take less time.
Any sort of guidance is welcome.
Thanks

Post the full code of the insert procedure along with the explain plan.

We also have some very large tables at the size of 5 and 6 million records. You want to look at the Index's you have on your base tables. Your Materialize View will inherit the Index's from the Base Tables and depending on the way you are displaying the data, it can cause Oracle to read 1 record in this table then 100K records in another table if the index's are not correct.

As and example, we had a report that took several hours to produce. Adding some index's and if need be, put hint's on the select statement, it now runs in minutes.

It is just one table, so no joins are used and no predicate used. In such case how to fetch records from the 47M rows table.

Go for MVIEW option.
Your query:
select c1,c2,c3,c4,sum(c5),sum(c6),sum(c7),sum(c8)
from t1
group by ci,c2,c3,c4


can be easily converted to an mview provided you follow all the guidelines mention in above link i provided.

so you believe creating a MVIEW option will fetch the 47M rows faster

of course yes!!

Materialized views store the results of the query, so they will store all the processed data for your query.
You can schedule manual or automatic refresh so that next time your tables changes,those changes should be propagated to the mview.

Will this same mview be used by other queries and fetch the set of data faster way for those as
select /*+ parallel (agg,5) */ c3,c4,sum(c5),sum(c6),sum(c7),sum(c8)
from t1
group by c3,c4

or

SELECT /*+ parallel (agg,5) */ * from t1;

or

INSERT /*+ append parallel (t1,5) */ALL
WHEN 1 = 1
THEN
INTO tab1
values(c3,c4,a1,a2,a3,a4)
select /*+ parallel (agg,5) */ c3,c4,sum(c5)a1,sum(c6)a2,sum(c7)a3,sum(c8) a4
from t1
group by c3,c4

If you want to know about parallel query and query rewrite using materialized views, you will need to do some reading like the rest of us do.

To summarize:
Quote:
1) your materialized view must be constructed with all the necessary pieces before it can be used in a query rewrite.

2) your instance must have certain init.ora parameters set correctly in order for query rewrite to occurr.

3) your query must be compatible with the materialized view for query rewrite to occurr.


In general however, if your query is a subset of the mview query, it is possible to get oracle to rewrite it to use mviews.

You know your query is a subset of the mview query, if you can rewrite it yourself to use the mview with out adding or subtracting columns.

Thus if you can do this (eg. it is syntactically correct and thus executes):

with
   my_mview_query as (
                       select c1,c2,c3,c4,sum(c5),sum(c6),sum(c7),sum(c8)
                       from t1
                       group by ci,c2,c3,c4 
                     )
select /*+ parallel (agg,5) */ c3,c4,sum(c5),sum(c6),sum(c7),sum(c8)
from my_mview_query 
group by c3,c4
/

Then query rewrite is possible if you add any additional items needed to the my_mview_query when you create your mview.

Seems to me that given the right MVIEW definition, query rewrite should occurr for the second query.
