Delete statement without redo and undo generation

johnpau2013Dec 27 2017 — edited Dec 28 2017

We have a table with around 900 million records. We want to delete around 95% of rows in this table using a where condition based on date.

When we run DELETE statement it will use REDO and UNDO segments of the database.

How can I run a delete statement by making sure database doesn't use REDO or UNDO of this SQL.

The data is not that critical so we would not have to rollback or redo, that is why we want to run the DELETE

in such a way it will truncate 95% of rows.
