I compress historical data on daily basis and was able to save 70 percent of the disk space. Imagine the amount of savings for five TB. Two major issues: 1) Oracle says updates will be slow on compressed tables, but I say don't even try to update a compressed table, uncompress first otherwise you will end up with a segment that is not good at all for scattered reads. 2) You can not add columns to the table when it's compressed, so if you compressed a big table and need a new column you need to recreate the table without compression. So adding many extra columns before compression is a good idea. It's mainly good for data warehouses applications. Regards
