What is Data Fragmentation Data Fragmentation in Oracle Analytics refers to the practice of dividing large datasets into smaller, logically separated segments—called fragments —based on defined criteria such as time, region, or product category. This technique is primarily implemented in the semantic layer to optimize query performance and data management. By configuring fragmentation content filters on multiple logical table sources, Oracle Analytics can intelligently route queries to only the relevant data source, reducing processing time and improving efficiency. Fragmentation is especially useful in large-scale deployments where data is physically partitioned or spread across multiple tables or databases. Just to clarify, when speaking of data fragmentation in Oracle Analytics, we’re not referring to table range partitioning, which is managed entirely at the database level and does not require any configuration in the semantic model, as partitioning is handled automatically by...
