Indian Media


When I reached melbourne, I thought atleast from television point of view Australia and India will be same. But, I was totally wrong. Here, news channels are only meant for news, not for entertainment like India. India must take action to curb the growing number of such entertainment channels. Most of the times they telecast something which cannot be termed as NEWS, and that story is telecasted as a BREAKING NEWS. I don't know how come all the stories telecasted by Indian News channels are termed as breaking news.

Whenever Indian News channels got something to increase their TRP, they make it a news. But, when there is some serious news, they don't even telecast it or telecast it in flash.

I don't want to highlight all, people know what our media is publishing. For example,
Recently, 12 terrorists killed and a young officer martyred. A total of 5 lines in the leading dailies and a scroll on the news channels. Hard to imagine this is the same media which was crying loud for soldiers just about 6 days back. Soldiers work on days other than 15th and 26th also.

Hash Natural Join

To perform hash join, Oracle follows these steps: 1.      Oracle chooses the smallest of two tables as the hash table (otherwise called as driving table). Oracle built the hash table in RAM after applying the hash function on the joining column(s) of the driving table. 2.      Oracle chooses the other [big] table as the probe table (otherwise called as driven table or probing table). It traverse through all the records of this probe table, applies the same hash function on the joining column(s) [column(s) used to join these two tables] and will hit the corresponding entry in the hash table. 3.      Oracle returns the output if a record from driving table is already present in the same hash key, else no record will be returned. It may look like Nested loop join & Hash join have the same architecture since both these have the concept of driving & driven tables but they have entirely different design if you closely look a...

External Table

External Table is the another type of table which is supported by Oracle apart from IOT and Cluster table. External tables allow Oracle to query data that is stored outside the database in flat files. The ORACLE_LOADER (an in-built driver provided by Oracle itself) can be used to access any data stored in any format that can be loaded by invoking SQL*Loader (an in-built utility provided by Oracle itself to load the data from the flat file into the data table). External tables enable us to read flat-files (stored on the O/S) using SQL. They have been introduced in Oracle 9i as an alternative to SQL*Loader. External tables are essentially stored SQL*Loader control files, but because they are defined as tables, we can access our flat-file data using all available read-only SQL and PL/SQL operations. We can also read flat-files in parallel and join files to other files or tables, views and so on. In this example, the data file (emp.txt) is placed in the location, “C:\test”. Then you ...

Bitmap index

Bitmap index is one of the index types that is supported by oracle. Unlike B*tree index, this is very compressed index. It means if I create a bitmap index on a column, then the generated index table will be smaller when compared the index table which is generated by the binary index on the same column. The reason is, in bitmap index, ROWIDs won’t be stored in the index table, instead index values will be mapped against bitmaps. Bitmap is nothing but it stores either of this values, 1(Match) or 0(No Match). For each distinct values in the column, a separate index record will be created. Unlike b*tree index, bitmap index can accept NULL and it creates separate index entry for this. Bitmap index will work better if number of distinct values are relatively less when compared to the total number of records. Why is it referred as “relatively less”? this index will work fine if table of 1,000,000,000 records contains 5000 distinct values and if table of 1,000 records contains 5 distinct va...
