6.3.8 Monitoring I/O Resource Management (IORM)

Exadata I/O Resource Management (IORM) enables multiple databases and pluggable databases (PDBs) to share the same storage while ensuring that I/O resources are allocated appropriately across the various databases that share the system. This prevents one database from utilizing the entire I/O bandwidth and degrading the performance of the other databases. IORM also works in conjunction with Oracle Database Resource Manager to manage I/O resources across multiple consumer groups within a single database.
