有效地比较两个表中的列

Posted 2021-02-27

This compares selected columns between 2 tables that you think might have differences. It lists the rows and values that are different between the two sources

You can add WHERE clauses as appropriate. You could also use this to compare the results of two queries.

This is from Tom Kyte (www.asktom.com). I can't say I understand exactly how it works, but it's much faster than other methods I've seen. It has the advantage of only looking through each table once.

SELECT COUNT(src1) AS in_old_addresses,
       COUNT(src2) AS in_new_addresses,
       first_name,
       last_name,
       city
  FROM (SELECT first_name, last_name, city, 1 AS src1, TO_NUMBER(NULL) AS src2
          FROM old_addresses
        UNION ALL
        SELECT first_name, last_name, city, TO_NUMBER(NULL) AS src1, 2 AS src2 FROM new_addresses)
 GROUP BY first_name, last_name, city
HAVING COUNT(src1) <> COUNT(src2);
