oracle create table as select code example

Example 1: create table oracle

CREATE TABLE ot.persons(
    person_id NUMBER GENERATED BY DEFAULT AS IDENTITY,
    first_name VARCHAR2(50) NOT NULL,
    last_name VARCHAR2(50) NOT NULL,
    PRIMARY KEY(person_id)
);

Example 2: oracle sql create table from select

-- Copy a table (datas, columns and storage parameters)
CREATE TABLE my_new_table AS SELECT * FROM my_source_table;
-- Use NOLOGGING, and PARALLEL if allowed for faster copy
CREATE TABLE my_new_table
    PARALLEL 10 NOLOGGING
AS
SELECT /*+ parallel(10) */ * FROM my_source_table;
-- To create an empty table:
CREATE TABLE my_new_table AS SELECT * FROM my_source_table
	WHERE rownum = 0;
