Up to 12 TB RAM (Full Rack compute tier)
Each Database Server in the X8-2 is a high-performance x86 server.
The Oracle Exadata X8-2, launched in April 2019, is an engineered system designed for maximum database performance, featuring Intel Xeon 8260 processors, improved storage, and enhanced Smart Scan technology. It provides up to 60% higher I/O throughput than previous models and includes specialized storage options to support varied enterprise workloads.

Hardware is only half the story. The (release 19.3 or higher) unlocks the X8M-2’s potential. Up to 12 TB RAM (Full Rack compute
: If you are running Oracle Database at scale and need microsecond latency for transactions or real-time analytics, X8M is the optimal choice as of its 2019–2021 era (superseded by X9M and X10M, but still widely deployed).
High-performance database management requires hardware and software to work in perfect harmony. The represents a milestone in this engineering philosophy. It delivers an enterprise-grade platform specifically co-engineered for Oracle Databases. Whether you are running complex Online Transaction Processing (OLTP), deep Data Warehousing (DW), or consolidated mixed workloads, the Exadata X8-2 maximizes throughput and minimizes latency.

Exadata automatically caches frequently accessed data into ultra-fast flash memory. Furthermore, the X8-2 integrates advanced algorithms that allow the database server to read data directly from the storage flash via Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA), bypassing the storage operating system entirely to achieve sub-100 microsecond read latencies. 4.
