Oracle’s Vision Hardware and Software, Engineered to Work Together Open and standards-based Optimized, integrated and extensible Better performance, reliability, security Shorter deployment times Easier to manage and upgrade Lower cost of ownership Reduced change management risk Integrated support

Oracle Storage Strategy Engineered for Oracle Software / Best of Breed for Mixed Environments Oracle Software Runs Fastest and Most Efficiently on Oracle Storage

Data Center Storage Challenges Data GrowthStorage Inefficiency Source: IDC Digital Universe Study, sponsored by EMC, May New Digital Data 1,200 Exabytes 2020 New Digital Data 35,000 Exabytes 29X Growth

SAN Storage Consolidation with Traditional SANs Storage Efficiency at the Expense of Application Predictability All I/Os are created equal Contention for storage resources Performance is unpredictable Some applications are starved Monolithic, 2-controller designs – Require an expensive buy-in – Limit scalability – Fork-lift upgrades for full scaling

Islands of Storage with Traditional SANs The Only Way to Deliver Predictable Performance Scalable number of servers per island Higher availability for servers and storage Each SAN array requires it’s own management, no benefit compared to DAS No significant financial benefit SAN

Pillar Axiom: 5 Levels of Quality of Service Aligning Storage Performance with Business Value

Pillar Axiom: Patented Quality of Service Deterministic I/O Prioritization QoS settings control drive type, count, and data placement Distributed RAID controllers add back-end bandwidth as capacity grows Controls read/write bias and RAID type Cache allocation implicitly controlled via QoS settings Controls CPU cycles, IO priority, and RAID grouping

QoS Provisioning Attributes ● Size of the LUN ● Input value is on per GB basis (Fat or Thin) ● Storage Class ● Configure storage on preferred media (SSD, FC, SATA) ● Priority vs. other Volumes ● Configure based upon application priority ● Access Bias ● Identify how data blocks are accessed ● Random vs. sequential ● I/O Bias ● Read vs. Write characteristic ● Redundancy ● Standard: LUN is stored once across Bricks with RAID protection ● Double: LUN is stored twice across different Bricks with RAID protection (mirrored copy) for higher availability

For your home grown applications, you can create your own Application Profile Create your own Application Profile

Create up to 64 Physical Domains in a Single Axiom No data co-mingling: Isolate application data or workloads to physical locations Separate user groups or departments to different physical locations Separate access protocols to different physical drive groupings Continuous data availability during maintenance and upgrades Extending QoS: Pillar Axiom Storage Domains Additional Performance and Security Isolation Domain 1 Domain 2 Domain 3
