The result cache in an Active Data Guard standby database is utilized to cache results of queries that were run on the physical standby database. In the case of a role transition to primary, the standby database result cache will now be preserved ensuring performance for offloaded reporting and other queries continue without compromising the performance benefits of the standby result cache.
Business Benefit: Use of the result cache greatly improves query performance for recurring queries and minimizes performance impact on the primary and standby databases. By maintaining the result cache on the standby, the performance of any queries that were running on the standby will be maintained ensuring previously offloaded reporting and other read-only applications utilizing the standby will not impacted by the role transition.
