Exadata Platform Support Best Practices & Operational Excellence
Oracle Exadata is built for the most demanding Oracle workloads – but its full potential is often underutilized due to lack of specialized support.
At ECS, we go beyond monitoring – we apply operational best practices drawn from years of hands-on Exadata platform experience, ensuring your systems deliver consistent, high-speed performance.
📌 Key Challenges We Address
- Smart Scan misconfiguration slowing query response
- Uneven I/O distribution across storage cells
- Improper workload management in IORM policies
- Overlooked firmware mismatches across nodes
- Missed patches resulting in latent instability
✅ Our Approach to Operational Excellence
- Quarterly proactive assessments (hardware, OS, DB)
- IORM policy reviews to balance OLTP/OLAP mixes
- Flash cache tuning for latency-sensitive workloads
- Implementation of zero-downtime patching strategies
- Integration with backup solutions like ZDLRA
🔧 What ECS Brings to the Table
- Support for Gen1 to X10M
- Seamless integration across Exadata on-prem, ExaCC, and OCI
- RCA and recovery planning for node failures
- Managed patching, escalation handling, and capacity planning
- Expertise in migrating from non-Exadata to Exadata
Running Exadata isn’t just about hardware – it’s about how you manage, optimize, and secure that hardware.
Let ECS bring Oracle-grade rigor to your Exadata estate.
