Monitoring Oracle Database Growth and Space Utilization

This SQL query helps monitor the growth and space utilization of an Oracle database by calculating the total size, used space, free space, and growth over a day and week. It provides key metrics such as percentage usage and growth rates, offering insights into the database’s capacity and expansion trends.
