    -Oracle allocates space for segments in units of one extent.

    -Temporary segment - Created when a SQL statement needs a temporary work area; these segments are destroyed when the SQL statement is finished. These segments are used during various database operations, such as sorts.

    -Data segment - It stores user data within the database.

    -Temp segment - There is a temporary tablespace called as temp which is used internally by the database for operations like distinct join etc.
