ORACLE DATABASE 10g ARCHITECTURE ON WINDOWS
Oracle Database 10g has the same features and functionality on Windows as on UNIX. However, underneath the covers, significant work has been done to take advantage of Windows-specific operating system features to improve performance, reliability, and stability.

Thread Model

The architecture of Oracle on Windows is based on threads, rather than processes. Threads provide faster context switches; a much simpler SGA allocation routine that does not require the use of shared memory; faster spawning of new connections; and decreased overall memory usage.

Scalability Enhancements
The Oracle database on Windows supports accessing large amounts of memory through a variety of means, including 4GB RAM Tuning, Very Large Memory, and Address Windowing Extensions. Because Oracle can use the maximum possible memory, 64GB, on 32-bit Windows 2000 and Windows Server 2003, users experience better scalability and throughput.

64-bit Support
The next major step for the Oracle database architecture on Windows has been achieved with the move to 64-bit Itanium, which greatly improves scalability. Because the Oracle database has already been ported to other 64-bit platforms, the move to 64-bit Windows results in a stable, high performing database from Oracle.

File I/O Enhancements
The Oracle database on Windows supports a cluster file system, easing manageability. 64-bit file I/O support permits file sizes beyond 4GB. Raw files, or unformatted disk partitions, are supported to provide some performance gain over using a file system.
