Questions and Answers

What can help improve the performance of Virtual Dataset Performance Repository backend?

  • Performing INNER JOINs only
  • Using analytical window functions
  • Using PIT tables (correct)
  • Avoiding joining gsr_ledts

    • Which type of join should be used in the Virtual Dataset Performance Repository backend to improve performance?

  • OUTER JOIN
  • FULL JOIN
  • INNER JOIN (correct)
  • LEFT JOIN

    • Why is the use of analytical window functions slow in the Virtual Dataset Performance Repository backend?

  • They are not supported by PostgreSQL
  • They do not work with dashboard caching
  • They are slow in vanilla PostgreSQL (and in the Flow.BI repository) (correct)
  • They always exceed the allowed query time

    • The Virtual Dataset Performance Repository backend is not based on PostgreSQL.
