We have a table that is defined as de-normalized table with avg row length of 300bytes. The table is has range partition on date and hash sub partition on ID field. The table is expected to contain over 1 trillion records. Insert only table. No update.
Question:
Can we write data into the table while table is defined forhcc compression for high at partition level. ? OR the current partition has to be uncompressed for insert ? Can someone please help in explaining the compression methodology that can be applied.
Thx,
R.

Direct loads will be HCC compressed, conventional inserts will be OLTP compressed. I think it becomes clear when you think it through: the HCC block format is different (a row will be distributed thought the blocks of a compression unit) so it can't be done in the buffer cache, only in the PGA.
By the way, if you find this useful, a fair return would be detail of the compression ratios you are achieving.
