Selecting the appropriate storage for Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) is crucial, as different storage types delivers varying levels of performance. Key factors to consider for Oracle EBS application storage:
[1] Performance [2] Restoration [3] CostOCI provides two primary storage options that can be mounted on compute instances:
[1] File Storage [2] Block VolumeEach option has its own advantages and limitations. It is essential to understand your customerโs business requirements and application needs to make the right choice for EBS.
Here are the key points need to be considered for choosing storage options for application in EBS:
๐๐๐๐ ๐ฆ๐ง๐ข๐ฅ๐๐๐:
[1] Easy Configuration: File storage is simple to set up in any compute instance. [ ~๐ฒ๐ฌ% ๐น๐ฒ๐๐ manual effort while comparing to Block volume configuration.] [2] Dynamic Expansion: File storage can be expanded to multi-terabyte sizes on the fly during critical storage alerts by editing the respective file system mount values. [ ~๐ต๐ฌ% ๐น๐ฒ๐๐ manual effort while comparing to Block volume configuration.] [3] Automatic Snapshots: OCI supports automatic snapshots through standard policies, enabling fast snapshot creation regardless of file system size. [4] Quick Restoration: Snapshots allow easy restoration of individual files or folders within seconds, ensuring rapid recovery when needed.๐๐๐ข๐๐ ๐ฉ๐ข๐๐จ๐ ๐:
[1] Standard Formatting: Block volume offers a standard way to format and mount volumes in compute instances. [2] Superior Performance: It delivers better performance than file storage during high-intensity CPU operations, such as compiling jar files or running ADOP options in EBS. [ ~๐ฒ๐ฎ% ๐บ๐ผ๐ฟ๐ฒ efficiency than File storage ] [3] Volume Expansion: While block volumes can be expanded, they have limitations compared to file storage. [4] Backup Policies: Standard backup policies are available, but restoration requires creating a new volume from the backup using traditional methods.Recommended Posts
