Oracle Alerts

Oracle Alerts is something that can be used to Notify/Alert to one or multiple persons about an activity or change that occurs in the system. The alerts can also be used to call a procedure, run some SQL script etc.There are 2 types of alert1) Periodic Alert2) Event Alert

Periodic Alerts:These alerts are trigger periodically, hourly, daily, weekly, monthly etc based upon how it is setup to be triggered. When alert runs and the condition(SQL Query etc.) in the alerts fetches record, then the events specified in the alert are triggered.Ex. 1) Daily alert to send notification on the sales order on which credit check hold is applied for a day2) Hourly alert to send notification on all the concurrent request that completed with error

Event Alerts: These Alerts are fired/triggered based on some change in data in the database. This is very similar to the triggers written on the table. Unlikely, event alerts can only fire on After Insert or After Update.Ex. 1) An alert that sends notification when new item is created.
