Cache Coherency in Oracle Parallel Server
Summary: Describes Oracle Parallel Server’s shared-disk cache-coherency protocol, combining instance-local and Distributed Lock Manager–controlled global locks. Analyzes granularity and static versus dynamic lock binding, contrasting hash locking for partitioned/DSS workloads with fine-grained locking for OLTP. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
