SAN FRANCISCO — EMC on Sept. 22 said its Symmetrix DMX-4 storage systems — which have a reputation for slowing down as they load up more and more data — are showing much faster I/O speeds running Oracle database applications when they are outfitted with new enterprise-class flash drives.
Off the top, this isn’t altogether surprising, since it is already well-documented that flash chips are 20 to 30 times faster than spinning disks for accessing data in real-time applications.
However, EMC claimed at the Oracle OpenWorld conference that the DMX-4 is the first enterprise storage system to use flash optimally for Oracle’s heavy-duty applications.
Because Web 2.0 companies and most other enterprises are seeing continual increase in database storage workloads, IT managers are always looking for infrastructure components that are cost-effective and also keep high performance levels. By integrating the attributes of flash, data centers — with the integration of even a single EFD — can see I/O speeds that would have previously required dozens of conventional Fibre Channel hard disk drives.
Symmetrix DMX-4 with flash drives delivers sub-millisecond application response time and up to 30 times more I/O operations per second than the fastest available disk drives, EMC said.
The integration of flash drives adds a new “Tier 0” level of high-performance infrastructure for Oracle environments, EMC vice president of storage product marketing Barbara Robidoux said.
“Flash drives can be integrated into an overall Oracle Information Lifecycle Management strategy to tier data based on performance, scalability and service level requirements,” Robidoux said.
“Flash-based storage technology is ideal for Oracle Database 11g and Oracle RAC 11g application environments that require the fastest retrieval and storing of data.”

AI success depends on whether enterprise data is ready, reachable, and close enough to the workloads that need it. In this eSpeaks episode, Dell Technologies’ Vrashank Jain explains why fragmented data, weak metadata, slow pipelines, and poor data locality can stall AI projects before models ever reach production.
In this episode of eSpeaks, Jennifer Margles, Director of Product Management at BMC Software, discusses the transition from traditional job scheduling to the era of the autonomous enterprise.
eSpeaks’ Corey Noles talks with Rob Israch, President of Tipalti, about what it means to lead with Global-First Finance and how companies can build scalable, compliant operations in an increasingly uncertain world. They explore how automation, AI, and integrated platforms are helping finance teams tackle today’s biggest challenges, from cross-border compliance and FX volatility to […]
