Case Study: Large Online Financial Trading Company achieves real-time Oracle performance and scale with Vexata

Large Online Financial Trading Company - Customer Case Study

Large Online Financial Trading Company needed to support rapidly growing Oracle workloads with much higher performance and scale, including more users, real-time queries, analytics, and backup/recovery, without driving up Oracle license and infrastructure costs. The company faced the limits of traditional all-flash storage systems and the complexity of tiering and caching workarounds.

Vexata provided its Vexata Scalable Data System / Vexata for Oracle solution, a plug-and-play storage platform for Oracle RAC and other database workloads. The platform delivered ultra-low latency and high throughput, with results cited as up to 10x better performance than leading AFA systems, including 1.5M SQL IOPS at under 300µs latency for a 2-node RAC setup and up to 60GB/s bandwidth in larger configurations. Vexata also helped reduce Oracle license spend by improving server CPU utilization and enabling consolidation of multiple databases without application downtime.
