Sanjay,

What is your storage device under your primary db? (or even your standby db?)

We snap clone our Prod (or Standby) db on Pure storage but the same technology exists for EMC etc.

Snapclones are bad fast and appear to be full size clones to the user/dba. But is a fraction of the space on the storage device.
