It seems Oracle Corp has been putting more resources into improving 3rd
party storage solutions, e.g. the OSCP, Oracle Storage Compatibility
Program. (See

P)
Network Appliance has received Oracle's blessing but I'm wondering... When properly configured, HOW DOES IT PERFORM? Especially when compared to other solutions such as EMC??
I reviewed list posts, OTN, and Metalink posts for the last year and I don't see a unanimous conclusion one way or the other. It seems some DBA's have had very good performance with large OLTP and DSS databases but others have not. I'm suspecting there were platform/configuration issues when performance problems were evident. Someone hinted that NetApp with Linux was not as solid as NetApp with Solaris.
I eagerly await any and all feedback regarding your experience with storing Oracle datafiles on Network Appliance filers.
