Exadata Cloud Service

Exadata Cloud Service for the databases you cannot compromise on.

When a database has to be fast, available, and consolidated, Exadata Cloud Service is hard to beat. We size it, migrate to it, and tune it so you get the performance without paying for capacity you never touch.

High performance computing hardware
Overview

The short version.

Exadata Cloud Service brings Oracle engineered systems into OCI, with the storage offload, smart scans, and high availability that demanding databases rely on. It is the right home for consolidation, for heavy mixed workloads, and for databases where downtime is not an option.

It is also a platform you can oversize quickly. We base the configuration on measured workload, plan the consolidation carefully, and set the scaling so you pay for what the databases need and no more.

Capabilities

What we do here.

Sizing and shape

Choosing the Exadata shape and elastic configuration that fit your real database load and growth.

Performance tuning

Using smart scan, storage offload, and Real Application Clusters to get the platform earning its keep.

Comparison

How Exadata Cloud Service stacks up against the usual alternatives for demanding Oracle databases.

Exadata earns its price when the platform is consolidated and tuned. Half used, it is just expensive. Sizing is everything.
Our approach

How we approach it.

  • Size the configuration from measured workload, not a wish list.
  • Plan consolidation so the footprint actually shrinks.
  • Choose a migration method that respects your downtime limits.
  • Tune for smart scan and offload so the hardware works.
  • Review utilisation regularly so you keep right sized.
