ORACLE的隔离级别(收藏)
隔离级别(isoation eve)
隔离级别定义了事务与事务之间的隔离程度。
隔离级别与并发性是互为矛盾的:隔离程度越高,数据库的并发性越差;隔离程度越低,数据库的并发性越好。
ANSI/ISO SQ92标准定义了一些数据库操作的隔离级别:
未提交读(read uncommitted)
提交读(read committed)
重复读(repeatabe read)
序列化(seriaizabe)
通过一些现象,可以反映出隔离级别的效果。这些现象有:
更新丢失(ost update):当系统允许两个事务同时更新同一数据是,发生更新丢失。
脏读(dirty read):当一个事务读取另一个事务尚未提交的修改时,产生脏读。
非重复读(nonrepeatabe read):同一查询在同一事务中多次进行,由于其他提交事务所做的修改或删除,每次返回不同的结果集,此时发生非重复读。(A transaction rereads data it has previousy read and finds that another committed transaction has modified or deeted the data. )
幻像(phantom read):同一查询在同一事务中多次进行,由于其他提交事务所做的插入操作,每次返回不同的结果集,此时发生幻像读。(A transaction reexecutes a query returning a set of rows that satisfies a search condition and finds that another committed transaction has inserted additiona rows that satisfy the condition. )
下面是隔离级别及其对应的可能出现或不可能出现的现象
Dirty Read NonRepeatabe Read Phantom Read
Read uncommitted Possible Possible Possible
Read committed not possible Possible Possible
Repeatabe read not possible not possible Possible
Seriaizabe not possible not possible not possible
ORACE的隔离级别
ORACE提供了SQ92标准中的read committed和seriaizabe,同时提供了非SQ92标准的read-ony。
read committed:
这是ORACE缺省的事务隔离级别。
事务中的每一条语句都遵从语句级的读一致性。
保证不会脏读;但可能出现非重复读和幻像。
seriaizabe:(串行执行事务,并发性最小)
简单地说,seriaizabe就是使事务看起来象是一个接着一个地顺序地执行。
仅仅能看见在本事务开始前由其它事务提交的更改和在本事务中所做的更改。
保证不会出现非重复读和幻像。
Seriaizabe隔离级别提供了read-ony事务所提供的读一致性(事务级的读一致性),同时又允许DM操作。
如果有在seriaizabe事务开始时未提交的事务在seriaizabe事务结束之前修改了seriaizabe事务将要修改的行并进行了提交,则seriaizabe事务不会读到这些变更,因此发生无法序列化访问的错误。(换一种解释方法:只要在seriaizabe事务开始到结束之间有其他事务对seriaizabe事务要修改的东西进行了修改并提交了修改,则发生无法序列化访问的错误。)
If a serializable transaction contains data manipulation language (DML) that attempts to update any resource that may have been updated in a transaction uncommitted at the start of the serializable transaction, (并且修改在后来被提交而没有回滚),then the DML statement fails. 返回的错误是ORA-08177: Cannot serialize access for this transaction。
ORACE在数据块中记录最近对数据行执行修改操作的N个事务的信息,目的是确定本事务开始时,是否存在未提交的事务修改了本事务将要修改的行。具体见英文:
Oracle permits a serializable transaction to modify a data row only if it can determine that prior changes to the row were made by transactions that had committed when the serializable transaction began.
To make this determination efficiently, Oracle uses control information stored in the data block that indicates which rows in the block contain committed and uncommitted changes. In a sense, the block contains a recent history of transactions that affected each row in the block. The amount of history that is retained is controlled by the INITRANS parameter of CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE. Under some circumstances, Oracle may have insufficient history information to determine whether a row has been updated by a "too recent" transaction. This can occur when many transactions concurrently modify the same data block, or do so in a very short period. You can avoid this situation by setting higher values of INITRANS for tables that will experience many transactions updating the same blocks. Doing so will enable Oracle to allocate sufficient storage in each block to record the history of recent transactions that accessed the block.
The INITRANS Parameter:Oracle stores control information in each data block to manage access by concurrent transactions. Therefore, if you set the transaction isolation level to serializable, you must use the ALTER TABLE comman
