ORACLE DATA WAREHOUSE WITH EMC SYMMETRIX VMAX 40K Building blocks deliver scalable performance, capacity, and data protection choices to meet Big Data challenges Essentials Twice the performance and capacity of previous EMC Symmetrix arrays: • Achieve the fastest response to queries • Big Data capacity without increasing storage footprint Scalable high-speed data loading: • Realtime business optimization • Refresh data in shorter update windows Non-disruptive backup and disaster recovery (DR): • Enterprise-class protection for valuable business and customer data • Negligible performance impact enables more frequent backups Tailorable options: • EMC SRDF®, TimeFinder VP Snap, and Data Domain® INTRODUCTION Today’s enterprise data warehouses (EDWs) are mission-critical resources, and changing business requirements require them to address an increasingly higher volume and a higher velocity of data. Warehouses are transforming into repositories for Big Data as businesses incorporate more detailed data (volume) and data from new sources (velocity and variety). In addition, organizations are using business intelligence (BI) tools to create near realtime analytics to optimize their operations and create new revenue streams. EMC® Symmetrix® VMAX® 40K series with EMC Enginuity™ builds upon the world’s most trusted storage array and provides the performance and mission-critical availability to address the challenges of Big Data in the enterprise data warehouse: •Powerful: Symmetrix VMAX 40K delivers the highest levels of performance to demanding EDW and analytic applications. Line-of-business users and BI analysts will experience the fastest query response and gain insights more quickly. The scalable data loading capability of Symmetrix VMAX 40K enables more frequent data refreshes and realtime optimization of business processes. •Trusted: enterprise-class protection of the data in the Symmetrix VMAX 40K data warehouse can be achieved without significant impact on performance, and multiple protection options can be tailored to the needs of the business. •Smart: enhanced management tools enable efficient deployment of mixed workloads on the same array. DATA WAREHOUSE DEPLOYMENT EXAMPLE WITH SYMMETRIX VMAX 40K This example illustrates how the Symmetrix VMAX 40K can deliver two key capabilities— performance and data protection—to a 30 TB enterprise data warehouse. The data warehouse employed an Oracle 11gR2 4-node RAC database, running the EMC DSS workload toolkit to generate a scalable workload. •Query throughput scaled as concurrent data warehouse users were added to the workload, up to 10.7 GB/s for 256 concurrent users. •Data loading load performance demonstrated linear scalability, up to 3.5 GB/s, as sessions were added for loading data from external tables. •Enabled by EMC TimeFinder® VP Snap, the database was backed-up under load using RMAN, with negligible (0.1 percent) impact on query performance. solution overview This building block demonstrated near-linear scalability, and query throughput reached 10.7 GB/s when four RAC server nodes were used. Additional RAC server nodes and back-end drive resources could easily double the query throughput to over 21 GB/s.

Symmetrix VMAX 40K in a 30 TB enterprise data warehouse Symmetrix VMAX 40K storage arrays provide high performance and scalability for demanding enterprise storage environments. Built on the strategy of simple, intelligent, modular storage, the Symmetrix VMAX 40K incorporates a highly scalable Virtual Matrix Architecture™ that enables it to grow seamlessly and cost-effectively from an entry-level configuration into the world’s largest storage system.

EMC offers tailorable choices for enterprise-class protection of EDW data. In this example, EMC TimeFinder VP Snap enables the non-disruptive creation of multiple snapshots simultaneously, on multiple target devices, from a single source device. In contrast to a full device copy, a snapshot only needs to store the data that has changed on the source device. Seamlessly integrated with the Oracle RMAN catalog, TimeFinder VP Snap created snapshots (logical point-in-time images) which provided a 75 percent storage savings and enabled database recovery times that were correspondingly shorter than a full system restore.
