11. Exadata Smart Flash Cache Write-Back
Writes I/Os
 Caches Write I/Os in PCI flash in addition to Read I/Os
 Transparently accelerates write intensive workloads
– 20X more write IOPS than disk on X3
– 10X more write IOPs than disk on V2 and X2
 Persistent write cache speeds database recovery
 Exadata Flash Cache is much more effective than flash
tiering architectures used by others
1 Million 8K
Write IOPs
from SQL
– Caches current hot data, not yesterday’s
– Caches data in granules 8x to 16x smaller than tiering
 Greatly improves the effectiveness of flash
