Techniques are disclosed for creating and using a filter index in order to identify registered queries whose result sets are likely to have been changed by changes made to tables. The filter index entries are based on filter conditions. The filter conditions are created based on predicates contained in the registered queries. The filter conditions may include exclusive predicates and join predicates. Join predicates that join a table T1 with a table T2 may be instantiated by replacing references to table T2 with values extracted from table T2. Various techniques are described for recognizing situations in which a query can be included in, or excluded from, the set of likely-changed queries, without fully evaluating the filter conditions that correspond to the queries.

Techniques are described to allow a query to be registered as a persistent stored entity within the database, and to generate notifications as and when the query result changes continuously as long as the query continues to be registered with the database. According to one aspect, for a table referenced in a query, a filter condition is generated based, at least in part, on a predicate of the query. Then, the database server determines whether the filter condition is satisfied by either a before image of a row, or an after image of the row, that was modified by a transaction. If the filter condition is satisfied by either the before image or the after image, then the query is added to a first set of queries whose result sets may have been affected by the transaction. From among the first set of queries, a second set of queries that have result sets that were actually affected by the transaction is determined. Notifications are then sent based on the second set of queries.

A method, system, and computer program product is disclosed for interacting with a client supported by a client-side cache. Embodiments of a method, a system, and a computer program product are disclosed that retrieve a first snapshot, indicating a state of the database after a last database request by the client, associated with the client, determine any number of invalid cached results for the client based on the first snapshot, and transmit the any number of invalid cached results and a second snapshot, an update for the first snapshot.

A method, system, and computer program product is disclosed for caching results in a client-side cache. Embodiments of a method, a system, and a computer program product are disclosed that associate a first snapshot of a database with a client that indicates a state of the database after a last database request by the client, and indicate any number of invalid cached results in the client cache for the client based upon the first snapshot. In some embodiments, the method further includes receiving a second snapshot that indicates a state of the database upon receipt of a database server request by the client, and updating the first snapshot with the second snapshot.

Disclosed is a mechanism, system, interface, and process to determine one or more life intervals when given a key. In addition, one or more life intervals can be determined for each key within a range of keys. This type of process is useful for auditing purposes or if it is desire to implement a query upon past versions when a key or range of keys is specified for the data for which past versions is desired. This facilitates algorithms, mechanisms, and processes to implement a query upon past versions.

A method and apparatus for selective removal of user data changes is provided. In one embodiment, the methodology is implemented by a logical recovery mechanism. Upon receiving a request to selectively remove user data changes stored in a database, the mechanism creates an empty set of transactions to be populated for selective removal, identifies one or more transactions and places them in the causal set of transactions. The mechanism further identifies other transactions that logically depend on any transaction already in the causal set of transactions. Finally, either while the causal set of transactions is being identified or after the identification is completed, the mechanism also determines user data changes made by the causal set of transactions. One or more compensating transactions may be generated by the logical recovery mechanism, which when executed, reverse the user data changes.

Techniques are provided for sharing of flashback cursors by adding a time domain property to flashback cursors. This time domain property defines the range of flashback times for which the flashback cursor is valid. According to one embodiment, this “validity range” is closed at the lower bound and open at the upper bound. A subsequent flashback query can share an existing flashback cursor if the flashback time of the subsequent flashback query falls within the validity range of the existing flashback cursor. In one embodiment, the validity range of a flashback cursor is established based on times associated with indexes used to process the flashback query for which the flashback cursor was made. Consequently, an existing flashback cursor is less likely to be used by a subsequent flashback query when it would be inefficient to do so.
