How does Oracle deal with large tables?
I am an Oracle novice and am curious about how
large tables work. I have a large set of flat files
about 13 of them containing names and addresses
etc, nice simple data but lots of it. The 13 files
average about 1.8GB each. Solaris 2.5.1 has
a file size max of 2.0GB. How does Oracle deal
with this volume of data? I have a large amout
of disk space available 16*9GB SCSI disks. I
am assuming that all data loaded into a table
can be spread evenly over all the disks. As I
mentioned I am a novice, am I jumping the gun
a bit here, should I read more docs first before
I attempting this sort of thing.
