Lowering Database Storage Complexity and Management Cost With HP Thin Provisioning XP and Oracle Database 10g and 11g

Tags:
storage management

Overview This paper explores and outlines how to apply HP StorageWorks XP Thin Provisioning and other HP XP technologies to help simplify and manage an Oracle Database 10g/11g environment. HP Thin Provisioning (ThP) provides significant capacity usage reductions as it allows administrators to allocate storage based on traditional methods, but only consumes the actual disk capacity accessed by the application. This decreases storage over allocations and reduces wasted capacity. Oracle Database 11g features - Automatic Storage Management (ASM), Auto-Extend and Table Partitions - introduce important management cost and time savings through automation of previously tedious and intricate manual database and storage administrator tasks.
