Here is the situation.
We have an Oracle 11g database where one schema user has a private database link to a remote database. When the user initiates a certain process, it pulls a large amount of data across and slows down the other applications. We would like to limit when this user can access this remote database by disabling the database link during certain times of the day and then enable it when performance is not an issue.
I have not been able to find a way short of locking the user or dropping the database link to do this. Changing the open_links system parameter, I believe, requires a restart and that affects the other database links as well.
Does anyone have a clever way to implement this kind of restriction?
Thank you in advance.
Yes, Solution is to enable Resource Manger. Limit the CPU or RAM as per your requirement.
You can enable 2 profiles , one with more cpu/RAM/IO and other with less resources and enable them as per your requirement.

I have an application that needs to send data to a cloud database (DynamoDb).
The app runs on a computer that can lose internet connectivity or be switched off at any time, but I must ensure that all data eventually gets to the cloud database.
I can assume the application will eventually be switched on, and will eventually get internet access back.
The app is written in VB .NET
What are some schemes for achieving this, and are there any ready-made products that already achieve this?
You could implement a write-through cache using a local DynamoDB instance (or even using SQLite). But without getting specific details about what kind of data you'd be storing into the database, and what data should be made available "offline" it's hard to say exactly how you should structure your application. You'll definitely want to not keep everything local, unless the volume of data is really small overall.
Then there is the problem of resolving conflicts that may occur during network partitions (ie. a client goes offline and makes some database modifications, while other clients also make modifications to the database; these need to be reconciled and it's up to you, and your users to determine how)
It's not a simple problem to solve.
I have an order system developed on asp.net 4 web forms. I need to store order details (order object) for a user on the cache in order to manage it till I save it in the DB.
I want to install my site at least on two server with option to scale for more in the future .
As you know , the two servers are located behind load balancer , so I need the cached order object to be shared on the both servers.
I hear about App fabric.
Any recommendation to good frameworks to do that , Hope will be simple and easy to maintain one .
Thanks in advance ...

If your data is not persisted, SQL Server-based Session state will work across machines on a per-user basis and can be configured with a minimum of fuss.
However, I would suggest regularly saving the order to your application database (not just the Session database) so that the user doesn't lose it. This is fairly standard practice on e-commerce sites. Unless the order process is very short, inevitably the user will want to pause and return, or accidentally close the browser, spill coffee into their computer, etc.
Either way, the database makes a good intermediate and/or permanent location for this data.
I want to store some data during my site viewing.
Sometime i need to store large data like crystal reports and some times i need to store a string.
So which is best to use and when to use.
Where are these datas stored. i.e., Client or Server
Please go through this link:
Nine Options for Managing Persistent User State in Your ASP.NET Application
What you are asking is about State Management in ASP.NET. What you have actually listed is Server Side state management options.
You can made a choice of which to use depending on your requirement or functionality.
I will recommend you do some background reading on MSDN regarding State Management. I am not sure which answer you need here as your query is a bit generic.
Here is a link to get you started... http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/75x4ha6s.aspx
This is a very open ended question. Ass Julius said you need to learn more about the different ways you can store information. For example, Application is used when you want to store information on the initial startup of the site and make it available to all users. Session is for a single user so you may have many sessions open depending on how many users you have online at that time. Cache is also a way you can store information on the server. All of these are stored on the server so if you have hundreds of users online at the same time, server memory will be consumed holding all this information. Rule of thumb is to try to be conservative when storing information in these locations. Personally, I rarely use application and also try to limit my use of session to when it makes sense. If I were to write an app that used crystal reports as you are, I would probably use sql to store the paramaters of the report and generate the report from the parameters but it depends entirely on the needs of the user using the app.
You can find a wealth of infomation on this subject on line. Hopefully this will give you some information.
I have been looking for a solution to allow us to monitor our web servers performance counters over an asp.net website.
Is there an existing tool that I can make use of to accomplish this or will I need to roll my own?
The only solution I have found online is the use of perfmon to connect to the remote server, this I need to avoid.
The only criteria we need is the ability to select or configure what counter are used and a web interface to few these counters at a later date. We need a historical record or the servers performance.
We are using asp.net websites on IIS.
Thanks
Using perfmon remotely is the standard way to monitor performance counters remotely. This is done by sys admins across the globe.
Why do you need to avoid this?
However, your will need to roll out your own. I had done this in the past (users who could not figure out perfmon...).
In terms of historical data - you will need to poll the performance counters yourself and record the data somehow (database, flatfiles etc).
You can also setup a website to display current values, control and configure performance counters - the accounts the site runs under will required sufficient permissions, however.
I am looking for ways to keep track of simultaneous users within an application. I cannot use IIS logs due to a load balancer that abstracts the users IP address. I am looking for a .NET code based solution or a configuration item, possibly with health monitoring to be able to track the "true" simultaneous user count.
I know that I can monitor the number of sessions, but that isn't really an ideal method to show, as it can be bloated based on the number of sessions with users abandoning their session.
There is a similiar question here: Tools and methods for live-monitoring ASP.NET web applications?
I found an advanced logging tool for debugging and monitoring .NET applications: SmartInspect. But I don't know if it meets your requirements.
What do you mean of "simultaneous users"? Perhaps you should monitor simultaneous TCP connections to your IIS application? Windows Performance Monitor tools should help you there.
Otherwise there is no sure way of telling how many users are using your application right now. If you can monitor number of sessions, then I'd suggest going with that. Just take into account the last modification time of the sessions, so you could get something like "active sessions in the last minute". That should give you a close measurment.
In the end we decided to use ASP.NET Performance counters, as well as generic information from the IIS Logs.
I parsed the information from both sources using the Microsoft Log Parser tool!
You just want to know the number of active users at a particular time? An easy option that omits inactive users as well as most bots would be to register the user as active through a JavaScript AJAX call on page load along with their SessionID. You can then purge old records from the log as you see fit. *Be careful of how you build your table's performance for read/write optimizations. ... just an idea off the top of my head.
We are using an expensive solution which is AVICode but it is great. You can monitor so many thing with that.
