What is the advantage of HyperBac against using other methods of producing compressed backup sets in Oracle 10g?
Other methods used to produce compressed backup sets in Oracle 10g use more aggressive compression routines, while reducing disk write I/O, these routines typically result in excessive CPU utilization introducing a different system bottleneck. As a result, these methods may adversely impact transaction throughput and system usability and responsiveness. HyperBac’s high performance compression technology reduces disk I/O and provides a high level of data compression and storage reduction without creating a CPU bottleneck. Transaction throughput is markedly increased and disk I/O wait states are reduced.
