Why Oracle Exadata Database Machine?

Oracle Exadata is the only database machine that provides extreme performance for both data warehousing and OLTP applications, making it the ideal platform for consolidating on private clouds. It is a complete package of servers, storage, networking, and software that is massively scalable, secure, and redundant. With Oracle Exadata customers can reduce IT costs through consolidation, store up to ten times more data, improve performance of all applications, deliver a faster time-to-market by eliminating systems integration trial and error, and make better business decisions in real time.

At the heart of every Oracle Exadata Database Machine are Oracle Exadata Storage Servers, which combine smart storage software and industry-standard hardware to deliver the industry's highest database storage performance.

To overcome the limitations of conventional storage, Oracle Exadata Storage Servers use a massively parallel architecture to dramatically increase data bandwidth between the database server and storage. Innovative technologies such as Exadata Smart Scan, Exadata Smart Flash Cache, and Hybrid Columnar Compression enable Exadata to deliver extreme performance for everything from data warehousing to online transaction processing to mixed workloads.
