Rakesh, Yes. You can certainly export a single partition at a time for logical backups. If you put each partition in its own tablespace, you can physically back up individual partions as well.

I have one question regarding the backup of Oracle database. In the database I am designing it is required to partition the database as per financial year.Almost all the tables will be partitioned accordingly. I want to know WHETHER IT IS POSSIBLE TO TAKE THE BACKUP OF INDIVIDUAL PARTITIONS (i.e. OF THE YEARWISE DATA). IF YES, THEN HOW IT CAN BE DONE. Waiting for your reply at the earliest, as my design will be dependent on your feedback.
