Fully supports enterprise IT standardization – it is a complete solution 2. Fully supports any combination of Oracle single instance and RAC environments. 3. Includes DMP which provides the necessary functionality for load balancing and channel failover of storage resources 4. Includes intelligent storage management, as it has understanding and visibility of underlying physical disk in enterprise class storage environments such as Hitachi, EMC, and IBM Shark 5. Offers flexibility and granularity in laying out storage recognizing that dynamically changing environments will need i/o tuning from time to time. 6. Is a mature product (about 12 years old) that is endorsed for all environments including large scale ERP such as SAP. 7. Provides an infra-structure that facilitates DBAs, SAs, and Storage Admins working effectively and efficiently as a team to provide robust infra-structure for mission critical environments. 8. Provides robust (kernel level) cluster member management and performance/availability of cluster interconnect and CVM/CFS 9. Because the SFOR/SFRAC suite of products fully supports single instance Oracle as well as RAC, if you choose to deploy without RAC or with a mix of single instance and RAC, the very same infrastructure will meet your needs. 10. With the additional capabilities of VVR and GCO, a Highly Available solution can be architected for your Oracle environment to address not only HA, but DR as well!
