What is Buffering Concept?
When should a Table be buffered?

Answer Posted / harry

Buffering is primarily to speed up data retrieval. If a
table is buffered on application server, then database hits
will be reduced thereby speeding the ease of access.

There are 3 types of buffering: -

1. single record buffering : only one table record will be
buffered when it is read from database

2. Full table buffering: If one record is read from a table,
then all records of table will be buffered.

3. Generic buffering: - The table records matching generic
key are buffered. The generic key is the one that we define
while setting the buffering settings for table.
