> All databases offer some kind of UPSERT functionality. Either as MERGE [] or INSERT .. ON CONFLICT UPDATE. Such statements could be used to prevent an additional roundtrip in case an INSERT was not successful and needed an actual UPDATE.
> Problem: Distinguish if the DB actually did an INSERT or UPDATE for each statement. This is done differently for each supported database but possible, except most likely for Oracle:
> MySQL: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/insert-on-duplicate.html
> - 1 for insert, 2 for update, 0 for update but unchanged
> 	
> MS SQL: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb510625.aspx
> - See example 'C' 
> - Use the OUTPUT variable $action
> - Needs some testing with JDBC
> 	
> Oracle: https://community.oracle.com/thread/3803485
> - Don't use merge
> DB2: http://www-01.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSEPEK_11.0.0/com.ibm.db2z11.doc.apsg/src/tpc/db2z_selectvaluesmerge.dita?lang=en
> - SELECT FROM MERGE
> - use a column to identify if insert or update was done, e.g. createdDate or similar (Modified?)
> - Needs some testing with JDBC
> Postgres: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/sql-insert.html
> - INSERT ... ON CONFLICT UPDATE ... RETURNING ...
> - Similar to DB2: Use a DB field to separate freshly inserted values from updated ones
> Ideally this is first tested with one database, e.g. MySQL due to the very convenient syntax in MySQL. If a difference in performance can be measured it could be implemented across the board.
