3.1.3 Higher Compression for Storage Server Columnar Compression

Starting with Oracle Exadata System Software release 23.1.0 and Exadata X10M storage servers, Exadata uses a more space-efficient compression algorithm for in-memory columnar compression in the storage server.

The algorithm uses the increased CPU resources in Exadata X10M storage servers to achieve better compression, which increases the amount of columnar format data that can be cached while maintaining excellent performance.
