i assume you are doing batch processing (say processing of
millions of rows):
1. add a new column to the table say t2 called
processed_rows char(1) not null default of 'N'
2. in a pl/sql block (start loop);
update processed columns to 'P' for processing
where rownum<101;
2. if rowcount after update=0 exit loop.
3. next insert into t1 select from t2 where processed_rows='P'
4. update t2 change column from 'P' to 'Y (saying processed)
6 commit;
7. loop until all rows are processed.
8. advantages. you can restart the process after failure.
and done have to start all over again only those that that
have not been processed will be processed.
to improve performance is millions of rows are being
processed then:
partition the table table;
and run the above sql against each individual partitions;
processing will be done that many times faster.
good luck!
