The X8-2 architecture is built on a scale-out model consisting of powerful database (compute) servers and intelligent storage servers connected by a high-speed 40 Gb/s InfiniBand network fabric. Database Servers : Each compute node features two 24-core Intel Xeon Platinum 8260 processors (2.4 GHz). These servers come standard with 384 GB of RAM , which is expandable to per node to handle massive in-memory processing. Storage Tiers
The X8M-2 replaces older InfiniBand with 100 Gbps RoCE for storage network: oracle exadata x82 datasheet
