The Exadata Database Machine X4-8 is a high-end database machine that has the same extreme performance, storage, and InfiniBand as the X4-2, but uses large-scale 8-socket SMP servers instead of the 2-socket servers in X4-2. Each of the 8-socket servers in the X4-8 has 120 processor cores and 2 terabytes to 6 terabytes of DRAM. The X4-8 is especially well suited for high-end OLTP workloads, in-memory or memory-intensive workloads, large-scale database consolidations, and multi-rack data warehouses.
