Faster Oracle performance with IBM FlashSystem

Bridging the performance gap

Published July 2014

This whitepaper discusses methods for improving Oracle database performance using flash storage to accelerate the most resource-intensive data that slows performance across the board.

To this end, it discusses methods for identifying I/O performance bottlenecks, and it points out components that are the best candidates for migration to a flash storage appliance. An in-depth explanation of flash technology and possible implementations are also included.
