Optimizing Oracle Databases with Huge Pages

Memory management plays a critical role in any operating system (OS), providing lower latency and higher throughput. Even though memory is volatile, it significantly reduces data access times compared to disk I/O. This is especially true for databases, where the size of memory can have a profound effect on performance. A crucial aspect of memory management is how the kernel manages memory pages. Here, we'll dive into how Oracle databases benefit from configuring Huge Pages, a feature that addresses the challenges of large memory environments.
