Even the documentation states, "The Oracle server is a sophisticated and highly tunable software product." Then doesn't it follow that learning how to diagnose and optimize performance should be a complex, daunting, and overwhelming challenge? Absolutely not! Throughout my 20 years of researching, writing, teaching, and consulting I have developed a number of methods and techniques that have allowed literally thousands to learn how to make complex Oracle server tuning simple and straightforward. This paper is aimed at introducing new Oracle DBAs to the world of practical performance diagnosis and resolution. I will start by introducing the concepts and key points, surrounding them with proven methods. There will also be a couple case studies and examples used to demonstrate how to successfully diagnose and set a path towards optimizing performance. Publicly available tools and methods will be used throughout the paper.
