ORACLE USE CASES

13

Max Acceleration Max Cost Optimization Max Scalability •  Lowest latency •  Smallest footprint •  For I/O intensive applications

•  Drop-in SAN/NAS acceleration •  Storage workload reduction •  Greater VM density

•  Multi-protocol •  Platform independent •  For clustered architectures

STANDALONE VIRTUAL ORACLE RAC

FLASH OPTIMIZATION

STANDALONE DATABASE SOLUTIONS

▸  Entire database on ioMemory ▸  High I/O files on ioMemory ▸  Physical storage cache:

•  directCache •  Oracle Smart Flash Cache

▸  ASM preferred reads ▸  Data Guard for High Availability

October 1, 2012 14

DIRECTCACHE

Database blocks read from external storage are copied as block image to ioMemory Subsequent reads of the same block are served by Fusion-io You decide which data is cached

October 1, 2012 15

directCache

Temp, Undo, Redo

Oracle Database

Files

Archivelogs and

Backups
