Performance Improvement ExampleSpindle Limited OLTP Workload

Flash Cache is More Effective than Adding Disk Drives
Baseline system was FAS3170 with 84 high-performance disks
Tested under OLTP workload
Adding 1TB of Flash Cache increased I/O throughput by 78%
Average response time improved by 30% with Flash Cache
140 more disks needed to get same throughput as 1TB cache
1TB Flash Cache costs 55% less than adding 140 more disks

Sizing Methodology and Approach
16
Integrated System Approach – Physical and Virtual
Compute (servers), network, and storage Based on a “balanced” configuration
(assuming linear scalability within and between building blocks)
Based on workload and database technology

Why NetApp for Oracle
Create On-Demand Database Clones in Seconds Enable Application Recovery in Minutes Reduce IT Cost and Complexity Double DBA Productivity
“By eliminating older, inefficient technologies of existing resources via the shared IT infrastructure with NetApp storage, we avoided building a new two-megawatt data center at an estimated cost of $65 million. Most importantly, we’re spending our money on expanding the business rather than growing a technology footprint.”
Rick KingCTO, Thomson Reuters Professional Division
