I'm new to ASM and was thinking about using it for some of our new database builds. We don't have a RAC environment and all the DBs will be single instance DBs.
What are the benefits of using ASM on a single instance environment?
Being a new newcomer is it even worth it to dive into that as opposed to the standard file system?
Environment:
RHEL 6.4
SAN Storage
Oracle 11.2.0.3 Databases
