Technical Insight: NetApp Takes On Oracle Databases

A Study of Oracle User Experiences with a Cross-functional, High Performance Storage Platform

Despite the broad diversification of database technologies available today that have been driven by open source software development, most enterprises—from no matter what industry segment—continue to use Oracle database solutions to support their core production systems. We believe this is because Oracle continues to offer, advance and support one of the most trusted and widely used relational database engines available for enterprise computing. The proof: Oracle databases are now used by approximately 310,000 customers worldwide.

As Oracle-based applications continue to evolve in the presence of hybrid cloud and application containerization initiatives, enterprise IT still needs a stable, high performance and cost-efficient storage environment to deliver Oracle applications to business users. One of these is NetApp with its portfolio of data-centric solutions that include ONTAP-based, fabric-attached storage systems, HCI platforms and cloud storage offerings.

Here we review NetApp’s storage systems as a storage platform for Oracle applications. We do so by first noting and addressing storage requirements. We then look at the data management aspects of NetApp’s ONTAP storage operating system to automate data protection and data distribution to applications manager, database administrators and data scientists. Finally, we present our findings from end-user interviews of an Oracle database environment supported by NetApp FAS storage systems as seen in real-world applications.

Welcome

The vision behind everything in Futurum’s Custom Research practice is this: research should show you what is happening, what comes next, and what to do about it. It should be personal to each audience, easy for people to grasp, and structured so LLMs can reason over it accurately. And it should be fast and turnkey; you want answers now, not another project to carry for quarters.

Whether you are defining business, channel, or go-to-market strategy; evaluating vendors or justifying ROI; or commissioning research to fill an emerging market need, we have your back, with a program that answers your questions with the objectivity and credibility to drive real decisions.

To do it, we bring unmatched data to bear: Futurum research, surveys, and market projections; validated market feeds; ETR’s 15 years of insight from 10,000 technology decision-makers; G2’s buyer and user data; and what our analysts hear every day. Add leading primary collection, from AI-moderated voice interviews to surveys and analyst-led interviews, all turnkey, and every project comes out credible, nuanced, and actionable.

And we don’t just drop the results in your lap. For internal work, we provide analyst-led sessions, interactive dashboards, and a range of formats. For market-facing work, Futurum delivers turnkey activation and amplification that actually gets seen, by people and by LLMs, through our media and share of voice. This is research that moves decisions and markets.

We will meet you wherever you are, from a fast-turn brief to a multi-year program, and shape the work to your goals, timeline, and budget. The right program for your moment.

If any of this is useful, I would love to talk.
