UPSERT/MERGE using Writable CTE in PostgreSQL 9.1

There is always discussion of having UPSERT/MERGE in postgresql. Since, oracle and other RDBMS has this feature, therefore people ask about this feature in PostgeSQL. In previous version of PostgreSQL, we used to implement it using functions. Now in PostgreSQL 9.1, user can implement this feature using Writable CTE. PostgreSQL 9.1, now has Writable CTE using WTH. WITH provides a way to write auxiliary statements for use in a larger query. These statements, which are often referred to as Common Table Expressions or CTEs, can be thought of as defining temporary tables that exist just for one query. Each auxiliary statement in a WITH clause can be a SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, or DELETE; and the WITH clause itself is attached to a primary statement that can also be a SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, or DELETE. Lets see how we can use Writable CTE for UPSERT. Following are SQL Code which can be use in Oracle and PostgreSQL for creating sample data: For oracle: create table myTable (pid ...

xDB Replication from Oracle to PPAS

EnterpriseDB Replication tool has been now modified and add new functionality in it. Previous Replication Console, which had been made, was using the DBA Management server and Publication & Subscriptions were dependent. Now, xDB Replication has been divided into two components: 1. Publication Server : (Master Server) 2. Subscription Server: (Slave Server) Some Background of Publication Server. Publication Server has following components: 1. JAVA Based Daemon. 2. MetaDatabase of Publication Server. Publication Server keeps its information (Information about the Primary Database, Tables Details etc.) in the MetaDatabase under schema _edb_replicator_pub Publication server is independent and has no dependency on Subscriptions Server. By default publication server uses the 9011 port. However, if user wants, [S]he can use different ports too. For running Publication Server on different port, use the following command: $EDBHOME/jre/bin/java -Djava.awt.headless=true -jar $...

Creating user probe and alert in PEM 2.1

This is also one type of thing in which people are very interested. How to create probes other than PEM inbuilt probe? And how to create alert based on probe? Well answer is simple. Understand what probe is in PEM and then understand PEM Data detail. Probe in PEM requires following: 1. SQL Code which can be use to gathering data by pemagent. 2. Table in pemdata schema, which will be use for storing Current status/data of SQL. 3. History table (specially in pemhistory schema) where all history data will reside. Suppose user wants to monitor the Slony Replication using PEM (since, PEM doesn't have slony replication moniotring), so user can do following: 1. SQL Code which can be use for slony replication monitoring. We know that slony replication monitoring can be done using view sl_status of slony. So, user can create a SQL Code as given below for replication. select '_test_slony' as schema_name, st_origin,st_received, st_lag_num_events , st_lag_time from _test_slony...
