Exadata Database Machine

The ultimate platform for all database workloads– OLTP, Warehousing, Database as a Service

Most advanced hardware– Fully scale-out servers and intelligent storage with unified

InfiniBand connectivity and PCI flash

Most advanced software– Database optimized compute, storage, and networking

algorithms dramatically improve performance and cost

Standardized, optimized, hardened end-to-end


Same Exadata ArchitectureComplete | Optimized | Standardized | Hardened Database Platform

Standard Database Servers– 8x 2-socket servers 192 cores, 2TB DRAM

or– 2x 8-socket servers 160 cores, 4TB DRAM

Unified Ultra-Fast Network– 40 Gb InfiniBand internal connectivity all ports active

– 10 Gb or 1 Gb Ethernet data center connectivity

Scale-out Intelligent Storage Servers– 14x 2-socket servers 168 faster cores

in storage

– 168 SAS disk drives 672 TB HC or 200 TB HP

– 56 Flash PCI cards 44 TB Flash + compression

Fully Redundant


Unique Software Optimizes Database Processing

Query offload in storage – Data intensive query operations

offloaded to storage CPUs– 100 GB/sec SQL data throughput– Storage Index data skipping

Database storage compression– Hybrid Columnar for 10x DB size

reduction and faster analytics

Database optimized PCI Flash– Smart caching of database data– 2.66 Million Database IOs/sec– Smart Flash log speeds transactions

Database optimized QoS–End-to-end prioritization from

application to DB and storage

Database optimized availability–Fastest recovery of failed database,

server, storage or switch–Fastest backup. Incremental offload–Exachk top-to-bottom validation of

hardware, software, settings

Database optimized messaging–SQL optimized InfiniBand protocol for

high throughput low latency SQL


Innovation Continues: Recent Enhancements

Query offload in storage– Offload searches on LOBs (12c)– Offload joins for non-parallel queries

(11.2.0.4)

Database optimized compression– Hybrid Columnar enhanced for OLTP– and for Spatial and Text data (12c)

Database optimized PCI Flash– Ultra high speed flash compression

(X3 & X4) at multi-million IOs/sec– Automatic caching for table scans– Faster file initialization

Database optimized QoS–Prioritization of CPU and IO by

multitenant pluggable database (12c)

Database optimized availability–Prioritize recovery of critical DB files

(11.2.0.4)

Database optimized messaging– End-to-End prioritization of critical

database messages (11.2.0.4), including log writes and RAC

Exadata X4 is the Fifth Generation DB Machine


No Performance Bottlenecks for Consolidation

Best way to ensure performance is to avoid bottlenecks

Exadata has unique extreme performance for complex workloads that mix OLTP, DW, batch, reporting

- Millions of I/Os per second, 100 GB/sec of throughput

- Sub-millisecond response times

- Highest bandwidth network

Unique software optimizations that eliminate bottlenecks

- e.g. Storage Offload, Smart Flash logging

Why considering Exadata for SAP

Certified by SAP

Runs SAP unchanged

Eliminate systems integration trial-and-error

Better performance out-of-the-box

Reduce vendors to Oracle and SAP

Best support (identical hw in Walldorf)

Fast and Online migration

Apply existing personnel, skills, Oracle licenses

Less administration, simpler patching, greater uptime

Consolidate platforms and databases, reduce power and cooling

Safe transition to a New Era


• Intelligent storage– Scale-out InfiniBand storage

– Smart Scan query offload

+ ++

• Smart PCI Flash Cache– Accelerates random I/O up to 30x– Triples data scan rate

Why is Exadata Storage so FAST for SAP?


How can I find out who can benefit from Exadata?

• SAP NetWeaver 7.0 and higher

• Review Oracle AWR Report

• Review SAP EarlyWatch Alert:• Z*-programs (home grown reports)

• (BW) queries and reports


AWR through DBA Cockpit


EarlyWatch Alert (Online Transactions)

77% DB time

93% DB time


Exadata for SAP

Massively parallel high volume hardware to quickly process vast amounts of data

– Exadata runs data intensive processing directly in storage

– I/O is no more the major wait event

Fits best if large/complex InfoCubes, queries, transactions, and large Ad-hoc Custom Reports are business issue.

The more “home grown” reports the more SAP customers can benefit from Smart Scan:

– spend large time in the database

– run I/O intensive operations

Extreme Performance


Exadata for SAPMigration without disruption

Supports all SAP NetWeaver 7.x ABAP and Java products & industry solutions e.g.:

‒ SAP ERP 6.0 (or SAP ECC 6.0)‒ SAP BW 7.x‒ SAP CRM, SRM, SCM (2005 / 2007 / 7.x)‒ SAP Oil&Gas 2005 / 6.x‒ SAP Banking Services 5.0 / 6.0 / 7.0 / 8.0‒ Check www.service.sap.com/PAM for more
