Explanation

The Exadata storage provides several unique performance-enhancing features including smart scan, storage index and Exadata Hybrid Columnar Compression. Monitoring these features can be easily done via the Gv$ performance views or Oracle Enterprise Manager. You can check if smart scan offloading has taken place or not and how much data got reduced by querying either the V$ views or by using the SQL Monitoring capabilities of Enterprise Manager. For example you can query IO_CELL_OFFLOAD_ELIGIBLE_BYTES from V$SQL to see if you query is eligible for query offload.
