Oracle 12cR2: Real-Time Materialized Views

Oracle 12cR2 is available for download - woohoo! One feature I'm excited about is the real-time materialized view, which allows a stale MV to be used by query rewrite. It sort of applies the changes from the underlying tables in real time. I was going to write up a demonstration of the feature, but a fellow named Uwe Hesse has already provided a very nice one on his blog. Check it out!
