Which Unity feature benefits oracle OLTP environments by improving storage utilization?

Answer options

• A. 4 block formatting
• B. Increased SP Cache size
• C. Automatic storage tiering
• D. VVOLS

Correct answer: C

Explanation

Automatic storage tiering is designed to optimize storage by dynamically moving data between different tiers based on usage patterns, which is particularly beneficial for Oracle OLTP workloads. The other options, while relevant to storage systems, do not specifically address storage efficiency in the same way; 4 block formatting and increased SP Cache size pertain to data handling and performance rather than storage utilization, and VVOLS focus on virtual volume management.
