Oracle’s primary data center is located in Austin, Texas. The data center consists of over 2 acres or 90,000 square feet of raised floor that houses over 20,000 Intel servers and over 4,800 terabytes of NetApp storage.
The key to the datacenter’s operational excellence is ensuring that it can scale as Oracle’s business grows. 200 billion dollars worth of financial data are run in the datacenter. There is no room for error.
Oracle chose NetApp because of the easy configuration, the easy management of the environment, and the ability to scale the storage to meet business needs.
All the systems have the same version, the same look and feel, making it easier for the Oracle IT staff to support and administer the growing number of computing resources in the Austin Datacenter
