5 Managing Information Organizations need to efficiently and securely manage all data Structured Semi- Structured Unstructured XML PDF File systems: simplicity and performance for files Relational data in (Oracle) RDBMS Oracle Database supports ANSI-standard LOBs Performance is a concern for many users 5

6 Files Belong with Relational Data Many enterprise applications manipulate both files and relational data Rich user experience, compliance, business integration This split compromises security, robustness, and management Disjoint security and auditing models Changes cannot be made atomically Backup and recovery are fragmented Search across relational data and files is difficult Space management is complicated Separate interfaces and protocols Application architecture more complex Two data managers for one application is one too many! 6

7 Oracle SecureFiles Consolidated Secure Management of Data SecureFiles is designed to break the performance barrier keeping file data out of databases Introduced with Oracle Database 11g Release 1 (4.5 years ago) Similar to LOBs but much faster, and with more capabilities Transparent encryption (with Advanced Security Option) Compression, deduplication (with Advanced Compression Option) Extends the security, reliability, and scalability of database to files Superset of LOB interfaces allows easy migration from LOBs Enables consolidation of file data with associated relational data Single security model Single view of data Single management of data SecureFiles is 100% backwards compatible with ANSI SQL 92 LOB interfaces 7

8 High Performance SecureFiles Vs. BasicFiles Writes: New Space Writes: Reused Space Read Performance MB/s File Size (MB) MB/s SecureFiles File Size (MB) MB/s BasicFiles SQLPlus file test: Concurrent Reads/Writes, OCI, 4 streams Adding files using new disk space: Up to 2x faster Adding files reusing space: Up to 22x faster Reads up to 3x faster File Size (MB) 8

9 High Performance SecureFiles Vs. NFS MB/s File Read Performance File Size (KB) SecureFiles MB/s File Write Performance NFS File Size (KB) SQLPlus file test, single stream, single host Using SecureFiles is faster across the board 2x-3x faster for Queries, 6x for Inserts Tests run using both SecureFiles and NFS/ext3 in metadata journaling only (default for NFS) Filesystem-like performance 9

10 Business Files in Database Applications Database applications store business data files as LOB columns 11g SecureFiles LOBs makes files in the database as fast as files in file systems Also provides transactional consistency with database data Advanced file management capabilities Compression, Encryption, Deduplication Relational Columns ID# Name Address Contract Photo 23 Lucas.. Customers Table Files / LOBs But Database LOBs are difficult to access from file-based tools 10

11 Files in the Database Reinvented Files DB Oracle Database 11g reinvents files in the database SecureFiles provides fast and powerful file storage Removes performance barrier to storing files in the database DBFS provides simple file system interface to files stored in the database Enables existing file based tools to access database files Familiar access through pathnames, directories, links Files kept in a dedicated file store, or existing application tables Oracle Database 11gR2 Storing business data files inside the database is now simpler, faster, and more robust than storing them outside 11

12 Database-Enabling File-Based Tools DBFS allows access to files in the db using file system interfaces File operations translated into SQL operations Directories and path names are derived from key columns in tables Enables access by existing file-based tools DBFS Client Acrobat Reader Network DBFS Server in DB Path Names, Directories /.. /Customers /Contract /Lucas /Photo Customers Table SQL Access ID# Name Address Contract Photo 23 Lucas..

13 DBFS SecureFiles Store DBFS also implements stand alone file systems in the database Directory information stored in tables Files stored in SecureFiles LOBs Used for operational application files such as ETL files, reports, etc. that are not in application tables Provides unified data and file backup, DR, management DBFS Client ETL Tool Network DBFS Server in DB /.. /ETL /Monday.dat DBFS SecureFiles Store Inode# Owner File Path 3768 Lucas /ETL/Monday.dat 13

14 DBFS SecureFiles Store Capabilities Powerful Configuration Options Full data logging, or meta-data only logging Cache, or direct read from disk Partitioning Compression File level de-duplication Encryption Total Recall Retain all file versions historical query, or regulatory compliance Snapshots Can create file system snapshots at user-selected past point in time Uses Flashback Query to create snapshots Can be used to recover deleted files or old file versions 14

15 DBFS HSM Store A DBFS HSM store allows archiving files to tape Application migrates older files to HSM store (e.g. old invoices) A DBFS Link replaces the LOB, LOB reads on links are transparent A LOB can be easily migrated back to the database for updates HSM store has disk staging area for storing recently accessed files Seldom accessed files are migrated to tape, brought back on reference Order# Customer Year Invoice /HSM 1234 Lucas 2003 /Old_Invoices /Invoice_1234 Sales Table DBFS Link /HSM/Old_Invoices/Invoice_1234 HSM Disk Staging Area Size is Configurable /..

16 DBFS Store API DBFS interface is DBFS Store API PL/SQL & SQL interface called directly by applications inside the database PL/SQL interface has all operations SQL view for read only access Same interface called remotely by clients on other hosts Strong support for storage of metadata associated with files Transactional file system operations E.g. Multiple files can be created atomically in a DB transaction DBFS Store API Create Operations Create files, directories, links Delete Operations Delete files, directories, links Get/Put Operations Read and write LOB and attributes of existing file paths Rename Operation Directory Operations List, Search Locking Operations Create Snapshot at point in time using consistent read 16

17 Building your own file system integrated with your application You can now build your own file system inside the Oracle db Create new value by creating a file system interface Database developers can now write a robust file system: No need to be a OS kernel developer or debug kernel crashes Create a file system interface to data stored in relational tables: Like a file system view for an existing database application Write a file system in Java, SQL/PL/SQL Or any other language using callouts Build your application-integrated file system in less than a day Writing a basic read only file system view on the LOBs that are currently in your database application in 60 seconds! 17
