Abstract: Techniques are described to perform an automatic reset of a database session to generate an environment that resembles a brand new session without the computational cost of creating a brand new session. In an embodiment, a DBMS receives a request from a client application to execute commands within a session. The DBMS identifies that the end request boundary, the end of the logical work unit for the client application, is reached within the session. The DBMS verifies that the end request boundary is at a resettable point of a session state of the session for the session to be safely reset. If the verification is successful, the DBMS performs a reset of the session to prevent any leakage of application-related session state to the next request.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed herein for identifying, recording and restoring the state of a database session and various aspects thereof. A session template data structure is generated that includes session attribute values describing various aspects of the session that is established between a client system and a database management system (DBMS and enables the client system to issue to the DBMS commands for execution. Based on the session attribute values, DBMS may generate a template identifier corresponding to the session template data structure. The template identifier may be stored in an association with the session state that it partially (or in whole) represents. In an embodiment, when another state of a session is captured, if the template identifier for the state is the same, then rather than storing the attribute-value pairs for the other state, the template identifier is further associated with the other state.
