Difference between count (*) & count (1)

Jin
I want to know the difference between count and count (*) (1).
Which is effective and why.

Hello

There is no difference between COUNT (*) and the NUMBER (1). They return the same results and are just as effective.

  • What is the difference between Count (*) and Count (1)?

    Hello

    can you please what is the difference between Count (*) and Count (1)?

    I saw that Count (*), Count (1), Count (2)... etc return values from a table. Is there an exact difference between them?

    Have you read the forum space FAQ? I'm sure that you don't have because it is answered there.

    It is also answered via Google.

    The short answer is: there is no difference, unless you use count (1), count (2), etc. instead of count (*) it makes you look like an amateur.

    COUNT (1)

    See that both give the same time

    Do you really think the 100th's of a second it takes 6 rows from counting will truly representative of the difference it takes actually?

    Such a small data set cannot possibly show no difference to these larger units of time (in the calculation of terms where we have millions of instructions per second in lieu)

    As the link to the FAQ provided in the response of Anton (first response on this thread) Watch, count (1) and count (*) are essentially the same, except that count (1) actually get re-written by the query re - write the step of the optimization to make it count (*).

    Generally 'count (*)' makes more sense language, because it reads like "count" while "count (1)" reads as "count we ', which does not have as much good sense when you actually count all.

    It works the same way

    Yes, he does.  As Jonathan, Oracle rewrites internal count (1) by count (*) in recent versions.

    In general, I suggest using count (*), since that's what Oracle prefer of course (it rewrites the other requests to make a count (*) if possible).

  • Difference between Satellite R50-B-114 and R50-B-119

    I would like to ask if there is a specific difference between these two?
    I don't think there is, but I'm curious, because I found two models with exactly the same settings (cpu, ram, hard drive, graphics, sound).
    And the price was different, 119 was about $ 100 cheaper.

    I found my guy already, however there are still 2 days until I can place my order (weekend). The only difference that I found at toshiba.eu is a hard drive size. My local dealer has them both with SSD of 256 and it was my choice. Does still count as the model even if a hard drive is changed?

    I haven't found a difference between the two models:
    R50-B-114 - 1 TB (5400 RPM) SATA
    R50-B-119 - 500 GB (7200 RPM) SATA

    Of course, it is the same model. The hardware platform is identical and has nothing to do with the SSD or HARD disk. Of course the SSD is much better choice. Machine with SSD inside can provide better performance of the laptop.

  • What is the difference between Foglight JavaEE and Foglight JMX monitoring?

    Hello

    I have a plan to monitor the 6.1.0.17 WebSphere Application Server (32 bit) and 7.0.0.5 (64-bit)

    But I understand not all Foglight for JavaEE and Foglight for JMX.

    Foglight for JavaEE or Foglight for JMX is able to monitor WebSphere?

    What is the difference between Foglight JavaEE and Foglight JMX monitoring?

    Thanks in advance

    Jeans

    Just to add to the excellent answers already posted.

    We have 2 agents which allows you to monitor Java:

    1. a JavaEE agent that runs inside the JAVA virtual machine and the information of both JMX and instrumentation.

    This Agent will give you JMX information like information of JVM (use of the bunch, son etc.), of the Application and server availability information and other information of JMX/PMI (connections pools, pools of ejb, servlets, jsp, JCA and more).

    Java EE & # 039agent also gives you information of the instrumentation - RFA count and response time, exceptional output and timeout information, distribution of queries (App/DB, component technology, server, application failure), object tracking, transaction flow and stransactional between servers and data sources) and ask traces (the ability to see the trees of the RFA at the method level to know where things are slow/stuck).

    2 JMX agent is running outside the JVM but can run on the same computer or on a remote computer, this agent requires access active, JMX. This agent gives you information JVM, availability server/applications, as well as some data as the application server published using JMX (pools of connections, JCA, EJB, servlets, etc.). The JMX agent also gives you the ability to see a list of the mbeans, get the data they expose (javaEE agent gets only a predefined list (same list that is used as a template for the application servers in the JMX agent)).

  • difference between control flow and check knowledge module

    Hello

    I know ckm and flow control. What is the main difference between the Frother and CKM?

    CKM is the model of knowledge that ODI will use to check all the constraints you create.

    Flow control is the way to a check constraint during the flow of an interface (it's way happens to you in your integration tables [temporary]). This method deletes the data of 'bad' and it will record in a table of $ E. Also, you have some option to recycle errors (next ODI run will try to reuse these data)

    Static control is another way to check your constraints. This is static as its name suggests and is average, it will only count the errors, but it won't do anything with the data. It might happens in the source tables.

    The most used method is the regulator of throughput with certainty, but static electricity has some advantages too.

    For example, flow control has only a little when you check duplicate data. When he found it eliminated the two registry (or more if there are more). It's average, you get nothing in the end.

    You can use the static control to check your sorce tables and create a process to eliminate or filter duplicate data, allowing only data duplicated to cross.

    Hope this can help you.

  • Difference between available and used space

    Dear team,

    can someone please explain to me the difference between the provision and the disk space used in simple words.

    concerning

    Mr. VMware

    The summary above capacity data store is interpreted as follows: -.

    The capacity is the total size.

    Put into service space is the total size allocated to virtual machines.

    Free space is the space not exhausted by VMs again.

    Therefore, with a provisioning, you can provision the amount of space to virtual machines based on the free space at the time there. A virtual machine can be allocated to 100 GB but only use 50 GB. The unused 50 GB remaining is counted as part of the free space. This can be seen also by clicking on the tab "Virtual Machines" of the data store to see the "put into service space' and 'space used '.

    I hope this helps.

  • What is a difference between 'Logical processors' and 'logical processors for each host?

    Hi all!

    In the official document VMware "vsphere-51-configuration-maxima" or "vsphere-55-configuration - maximums.pdf" in the section "ESXi host maximum rates------Maximums calculation" exists in the elements:

    "Maximum CPU------logical CPU for each host ' (vSphere 5.1: 160;)   vSphere 5.5: 320)

    and

    "Machine virtual maximums------virtual CPU by host ' (vSphere 5.1: 2048;)    vSphere 5.5: 4096)

    Question: what is the difference between the two?

    And a more complex thing to maximum rates:

    Virtual machines per host: 512

    Number of hosts per cluster: 32

    Therefore, the cluster may be Virtual Machines (maximum): 521 * 32 = 16384

    But in the document, we have only 4000 VMs in maximum.

    Why?

    Thank you

    Ramirez,

    I understand your question as difference between 1. logic virtual CPU vs / by the hosts and 2. cluster/host Max County VM.

    Consider the case below;

    2 servers ESXi - 20 mV

    ESXi taken 1-4, 2 cores / socket

    ESXi 2-8 Sockets, 2 cores / socket

    Now here number of CPU logic-(4 x 2) + (8 x 2) = 24

    20 virtual machines - 2 jacks, 2 core / socket

    Virtual CPU count - 20 x (2 * 2) = 80

    Hope your first confusion is clear now.

    And a more complex thing to maximum rates:

    Virtual machines per host: 512

    Number of hosts per cluster: 32

    Therefore, the cluster may be Virtual Machines (maximum): 521 * 32 = 16384

    But in the document, we have only 4000 VMs in maximum.

    Why?

    This means that even if you have 32 Guest and each host can accommodate 512 VMs each the maximum number of virtual machines per cluster may not exceed 4000. And it does not mean that you can have a maximum of VMS (512 * 32).

  • Difference between Adobe Reader and Adobe Acrobat Reader DC, please?

    I always check manually (and daily) for updates. A few weeks back, I checked for updates of Adobe Reader 11 and found nothing, but found only adobe Acrobat Reader DC listed. I assumed it was the newest Adobe Reader 11 and downloaded and installed Acrobat Reader DC replacement. No problem, very well.

    Moving fast until today when I checked the updates to the Acrobat Reader DC, and I found an update for Adobe Reader 11 (Version 11.0.11). So, what is the difference between Adobe Reader and Adobe Acrobat Reader DC? Should I stay with Adobe Reader? I'm confused! (Thanks a lot).

    New name, same thing.

    Adobe will continue to publish updates of Player 11 for a while, but they will not be security update.

    DC is actually version 15. Or 2015. Depends on how count you.

    Hello

    If I unederstand the problem correctly, that's what you want:

    WITH       got_extrema     AS
    (
         SELECT       tr_id
         ,       CAST (MIN (create_time) AS DATE)     AS start_date
         ,       CAST (MAX (create_time) AS DATE)     AS end_date
         FROM       test
         GROUP BY  tr_id
    )
    SELECT       tr_id
    ,       start_date, end_date          -- If wanted
    ,       24 * ( ( ( TRUNC (end_date,   'IW')          -- Count -1 day for every full week
                        - TRUNC (start_date, 'IW')
                 )
               / -7
                  )
                + LEAST ( end_date               -- If end_date is a Sunday
                            , TRUNC (end_date, 'IW') + 6     -- consider it 00:00:00 on Sunday
                     )
                - CASE
                          WHEN  start_date >= TRUNC (start_date, 'IW') + 6     -- If start_date is a Sunday
                   THEN  TRUNC (start_date, 'IW') + 6               -- consider it 00:00:00 Sunday
                   ELSE  start_date
                      END
                )     AS total_hours
    FROM      got_extrema
    ;
    

    I guess that you don't need to worry about fractions of a second. As you did in the code you have posted, I am to convert the TIMESTAMP to date values, because of DATE arithmetic and functions are so much better than what is available for timestamps.

    Basically, it's just to find the number of days between start_date and end_date and multiplying by 24, with these twists:
    (a) 1 day is deducted for each week between start_date and end_date
    (b) if End_date is a Sunday, none of the end_date himself hours are counted
    (c) If start_date is a Sunday, then all the start_date himself hours are counted. Why these hours should be counted? Because 1 day is already being deducted for the week which includes start_date, which contains only this Sunday.

    TRUNC (dt, 'IW') is the beginning of the ISO week containing dt; in other words, 00:00:00 the or before the dt last Monday. This is not the NLS parameters.

    Of course, I can't test without some sample data and the exact results you want from these data. You may need a little something more If start_date and end_date are both on the same Sunday.
    Whenever you have a problem, please post a small example of data (CREATE TABLE and only relevant columns, INSERT statements) of all of the tables involved.
    Also post the results you want from this data, as well as an explanation of how you get these results from these data, with specific examples.

    Hello
    can you please tell me difference between flow and stolen

    Thank you
    Nirmal

    See: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B31017_01/integrate.1013/b28981/parallel.htm

    flow will be to use a pre-defined () amount of branches, with flight you can do the amount of dynamic branches

    So let's say we have

    getUserDetails
    getAddressDetails

    now, you can use streams, create 2 branches and make the call to both methods in each branch.

    Let's say that you receive a list of customers in your service interface. Now, you can loop through with-foreach each customer and sequential not logic like Getcustomerdetails in the loop, or... .you create a flight and N is the number of clients in the list.

    After that, you will get N parallel branches that will make Getcustomerdetails (instead of the other sequential loop)

    This fly is the dynamic Variant that will create N branches according to the Counter field you base your expression on
