For many organizations, the business drivers for securing stored data are becoming obvious: high-profile security breaches, identity theft, brand damage, regulatory penalties, and increased legal liability have all underscored the importance of securing large data repositories. As organizations acknowledge their increasing vulnerability to data theft, and the potential costs, they are turning to encryption as a way to lock down sensitive information.

For several years NAS has been evolving as a storage alternative for Oracle databases, and for good reason: NAS is quite often the simplest, most cost-effective storage approach for Oracle.

This evolution is driven in part by the emergence of scalable NAS technologies. Scalable NAS improves on traditional NAS in its ability to scale capacity and performance well beyond the limits of a single filer and provide the cost effective, built-in high availability required for enterprise Oracle environments. This step, along with the release of Direct NFS from Oracle and the simplicity of NAS, is ushering in a massive increase in the adoption of NAS for Oracle.
