Optimized Storage Management
Oracle Database provides cost-effective, optimized storage management for all your data. Oracle minimizes costly I/O operations, reduces required storage capacity, and maximizes performance and utilization. Storage can be automatically managed, and optimizations transparently implemented. |
Oracle Exadata |
|
| The HP Oracle Exadata Storage Server is a storage product highly optimized for use with the Oracle database. It provides database aware storage services, such as the ability to offload database processing from the database server to storage, and provides this while being transparent to SQL processing and your database applications. Exadata storage delivers dramatic performance improvements, with unlimited I/O scalability, is simple to use and manage, and delivers mission-critical availability and reliability to your enterprise.

ILM |
|
| Oracle Database 11g provides the ideal environment for implementing your ILM solution, because it offers a cost-effective solution, that is secure, transparent to the application and achieves all of this without compromising performance. Oracle provides an ILM assistant to help define lifecycle policies, manage data movement and report on benefits. Implementing ILM using Oracle Database 11g |
Partitioning |
|
| Partitioning can improve the performance of certain queries or maintenance operations by an order of magnitude. Moreover, partitioning can greatly reduce the total cost of data ownership, using a "tiered archiving" approach of keeping older relevant information still online on low cost storage devices.

Advanced Compression |
|
| Compression significantly reduces the storage footprint of databases through compression of structured data (numbers, characters), unstructured data (documents, spreadsheets, XML and other files) and backup data (RMAN backups and Data Pump exports). It also improves memory efficiency and provides I/O benefits, thereby maintaining or improving performance. Oracle Advanced Compression supports all database operations, including DML operations.

Automatic Storage Management |
|
| Automatic Storage Management (ASM) provides a vertically integrated file system and volume manager, purpose-built for Oracle database files. ASM saves DBAs time, provides optimal performance, and allows for online storage growth and migration. Oracle Automatic Storage Management White Paper |
