#1 – Configuration & price flexibility

OLTP and Data Warehouse Have Different Design Needs

IBM believes that designing and building systems optimized
for specific workloads is the best approach

 OLTP Systems
– Run the business by processing the transactions that are critical to the organization
– Utilization is driven by the number of users, not complexity of SQL
– Smaller block I/O – 8K
– Higher write - updated online, many index lookups Would you
– Buffer, log and cache management are key to performance in clusters configure OLTP and
Data Warehouse
 Data Warehouse Systems
systems identically?
– Analyze the transaction data to provide strategic and competitive differentiation
– Larger more complex queries with more table joins, complex SQL ORACLE DOES
– Lots of large block I/O – 16-32K with Exadata!
– 90-95% reads
– Tends to consume entire environments

 Mixing OLTP and Data Warehouse databases within the same OS is not generally recommended

Exadata — Rigid and Lacks Customization to Client’s Workload

You’re locked in to a fixed configuration that lacks the granularity to
size YOUR workload to YOUR needs — Fixed node sizes, fixed ratio
of cores-to-disks and fixed upgrade options

 Processing and storage capacity are not sold independently — when you need to increase
processing, you likely don’t need more storage
– Typical Exadata system running OLTP can end up with 6x-28x more storage than required
– When you need high-performance, you are paying too much for 100 TB of usable low-
performance storage you may never use
 Exadata storage nodes come with 5 TB of expensive flash cache and 100 TB of disk storage —
whether both are required or not
 If you have a ¼ rack and you want to upgrade, you have to
move to a ½ rack
– Doubling the size of your environment — even if you
only need one more processor
– Have to pay Oracle license and maintenance fees —
even if you’re not using all that processing power

#4 – Scalability

Scale Up or Scale Out Depending on Application Needs with POWER7

With Exadata, you
 Drive a consolidation strategy and add in pieces you need, have to add
as you need them capacity in big
– Add additional CPUs for better performance increments and
– Add additional memory for cache-sensitive workloads only via scale-out
– Add SSD for reduced I/O latency nodes, which
increases
– Leverage existing disks for tiered storage
complexity and
 Scale up and configure fewer, more powerful servers management
considerations.
– Fewer moving parts means less to manage
– Less complex RAC configurations
 Deploy new applications and respond to rapidly changing Do you want to
business needs quickly and easily waste capacity
– Mix application and database on and pay for what
the same machine you don’t need
– Mix test and production on the with Exadata?

– Most third-party applications not yet certified
– Storage must use ASM, you have no choice Exadata’s
limitations?
 Does not allow additional hardware/software on Oracle Database
Server or Exadata Storage Server nodes
 No flexibility – backups must use RMAN, Disaster Recovery use Data Guard
 Need 22 installations of the Oracle Linux OS
– Is Oracle Linux certified in your environment?
 Need 8 copies of Oracle 11gR2 Database Server software
– Does your application stack support Oracle 11gR2?
 Need 14 copies of Oracle 11gR2 Exadata Storage software
– Can you tune this piece? Do you have to? How do you?
– Newly available software with unproven code quality
