Intel Optane Persistent Memory Use Cases with Oracle Database In-Memory

This session will discuss testing carried out for two Oracle Database In-Memory use cases with Intel Optane PMem running in both Memory Mode (PMem-MM) and in App Direct Mode (PMem-AD) on a standard X-86 server.
The goal of the testing was to determine if PMem technology can provide an alternative option to traditional DRAM and to other fast tiered storage disks in a Database In-Memory environment.

The session will also provide the steps on how to configure Oracle Database 19c with PMem as a persistent block-addressable storage device.
