Provides row level security. Access to to data is controlled by the label.
- Partitioning
Partitioning allows a table, index or index-organized table to be subdivided into smaller pieces. Each piece of database object is called a partition. Each partition has its own name, and may optionally have its own storage characteristics, such as having table compression enabled or being stored in different tablespaces.

Geographic and location data are manipulated using the same semantics applied to the CHAR, DATE or INTEGER types that are familiar to all users of SQL.`
- OLAP
Online analytical processing tools for building data warehouses. OLAP Option extends the analytic capabilities of the Oracle database by providing new multidimensional datatypes, a multidimensional calculation engine, and a framework to build OLAP applications using SQL, PL/SQL, and Java.
