Abstract: In an embodiment, a method of resource pre-configuration includes obtaining, at a target system, configuration information about a resource that is predicted to be used by a transaction which will be executed on the target system. The resource is configured, at the target system, based on the configuration information. The configuring is before the transaction requests use of the resource.

Abstract: According to one embodiment of the present invention, a system compares database transactions to corresponding performance information to identify conforming database transactions with an acceptable deviation from the performance information and outlier database transactions beyond the acceptable deviation from the performance information. The system aggregates information from a threshold quantity of conforming database transactions into an aggregated record, wherein the threshold quantity is dynamically adjusted, and generates a record for each outlier database transaction, wherein conditions for identifying the outlier database transactions are dynamically adjusted. Embodiments of the present invention further include a method and computer program product for managing database transactions in substantially the same manners described above.

Abstract: According to one embodiment of the present invention, a system inserts data into a database object. The system associates the database object with a parameter specifying materialization of data for the database object. The system inserts data into the database object and materializes the data in accordance with the parameter to provide access to the data from the database object, wherein the parameter specifies a portion of the data to be materialized upon insertion. Embodiments of the present invention further include a method and computer program product for inserting data into a database object in substantially the same manners described above.

Abstract: According to one embodiment of the present invention, a system includes a processor to copy an object of a database system. The system determines one or more portions of the object that are active and reside within a buffer pool of the database system, and copies the determined portions of the object from the buffer pool. Remaining portions of the object that are non-active are copied from database storage. A copy of the object is created from the copied object portions. Embodiments of the present invention further include a method and program product for copying an object of a database system in substantially the same manner described above.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, a computer-implemented method of decompressing compressed data is described. A first decompression dictionary is analyzed, the first decompression dictionary including a plurality of chains each with uncompressed data portions distributed in a non-contiguous manner within the first decompression dictionary based on an addressing scheme, where the uncompressed data portions of each chain form a corresponding uncompressed version of compressed data. A second decompression dictionary is generated by combining the uncompressed data portions of each of the chains in the first decompression dictionary to form uncompressed versions of compressed data and instructions are inserted within the second decompression dictionary to decompress compressed data. The compressed data are decompressed by applying the compressed data to the second decompression dictionary.
