Answer Posted / sarat
Cursors allow row-by-row processing of the resultsets.
Disadvantages of cursors: Each time you fetch a row from the
cursor, it results in a network roundtrip, where as a normal
SELECT query makes only one rowundtrip, however large the
resultset is. Cursors are also costly because they require
more resources and temporary storage (results in more IO
operations). Further, there are restrictions on the SELECT
statements that can be used with some types of cursors.
Most of the times, set based operations can be used instead
of cursors.
