Overall Satisfaction with Oracle Exadata Database Machine
We use the Exadata enterprise wide. It has all of our OLTP production databases as well as the data warehouse. We also have a standby Exadata where we use Active Data Guard.
- Storage cell offload
- Full table scans
- Manages itself
- Easier to add storage - it only gets shipped with so much and you have to purchase additional storage. That's not cheap, and they have to be installed.
- [Could be] less expensive
- Tons - including less stress, faster turnaround for deployments - up to 40% saved time for my team.
