Disk access is way slower than memory access. Caching is a technique to improve the disk access time.  Block cache is a caching technique which reduces disk accesses time.  Here a portion of disk is bought to cache for reading and a modified blocks are first changed in cache but reflected in the disk at one go.  On the other hand with write through caching each modified block is written to cache and at the same time it is written to the disk.  Write- through caching requires more disk I/O so they can have a negative effect on the performance.

Answer:

block cache

Explanation:

    An integrated cache is a layer of memory that automatically caches frequently accessed data through the source database.

    Block cache is used to store blocks read from disks. This means that a small buffer cache will cause Oracle to cache data blocks following the LAST RECENTLY USED list, and depending on how often this happens, can lead to a drop in performance.

    There is no magic to sizing the block cache, what you usually do is estimate an initial size and monitor the hit, if it is not optimal, you will need to lengthen and repeat the monitoring cycle.

Word Online works exact same as the downloaded Office 2016 version.<br>True<br>False​
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

The Answer is false. They work similarly but quite differently on a lot of offerings from them. Office 365 and office.com are online version, and Office 2016 is a desktop version.

Explanation:

I am not going very deep into this but the facts I am mentioning will clarify your doubts.

Office 2016 offers so many ways to share a file even though we work offline on it We can email the document, share on social media as well as store on One drive. However, Office 365, and especially Word online does not allow any other sharing options than sending an invitation or sharing a link.

For Word Online you will need internet all the time, though you can work from anywhere, and even on any device. Word 2016 does not require internet, but provide a lot of analytics features and even data mining facilities when it is connected to the internet.

Watch out for Word online 2019 version, and office 2019 desktop version. They are awesome and provides AI features, and a lot more than 2016 versions, both desktop and online.
