The Dell | Oracle Starting Lineup

Knowing how to implement your solution involves a range of variables. Determining which solution is best for your business needs can be a difficult, costly undertaking.

Dell™ | Oracle® solutions are designed to help simplify and streamline the process.

Dell offers hundreds of Oracle database configurations and architectural overviews based on years of preengineering and deployment expertise.

You can reduce preimplementation testing with tested and validated solution stacks, such as servers, storage, switches, operating systems and Oracle database software. This approach ensures compatibility and enables faster deployment so you can see a faster return on your investment.

Leverage Oracle Innovations

Meet your business needs with the power and flexibility of Oracle architecture options:

  • Real Application Clusters enable a single database to run across a cluster of servers. If a single system in the cluster fails, the others take up the slack without diminishing performance.
  • Grid computing enables multiple applications to share a computing infrastructure that is pooled and provisioned on demand. You get mainframe-like performance at a fraction of the cost.
