SGA/buffer cache and all the locks/latches/mutexes necessary to coordinate access to those buffers.

Teradata doesn't implement acid as far as I know.

Subject: Teradata article about exadata

This is a marketing article. I have not used teradata or exadata. I think Teradata is basically Oracle running on custom hardware sold by Oracle that is specialized for DB performance.�

anyone know what they mean by "shared disk"? Its on page 2.� I'd like to avoid an oracle fan argument. I know people who have used teradata and find it a very a good product.�

While Exadata improves Oracle�s I/O performance, Exadata does not tackle Oracle�s underlying performance and scalability problems with large-scale data warehousing that stem from its shared disk architectural foundation.
