Database Overall → Core Database
Prior to this feature, after a direct load and prior to a commit, queries and additional DMLs were not allowed on the same table for the same session or for other database sessions. This enhancement allows the loading session to query and perform DML on the same table that was loaded. Rollback to a savepoint is also supported.
Business Benefit: This feature removes the restrictions that you may have encountered when loading and querying data. Potentially improving the performance of your applications in areas such as Data Warehousing and complex batch processing.
