Oracle Data Blocks
At the finest level of granularity, Oracle database data is stored in data blocks. One data block corresponds to a specific number of bytes
of physical database space on disk. The standard block size is specified by the
DB_BLOCK_SIZEinitialization parameter. In addition, you can specify up to five other block sizes. A database uses and allocates free database space in Oracle data
blocks.
extent
The next level of logical database space is an extent. An extent is a specific number of contiguous data blocks, obtained in a single allocation,
used to store a specific type of information.
Above extents, the level of logical database storage is a segment. A segment is a set of extents allocated for a certain logical structure.
The following table describes the different types of segments.

numerous smaller ones. This lets Oracle Database utilize the ability of 64-bit systems to create and manage ultralarge files. The consequence of this is that Oracle Database can now scale up to 8 exabytes in size. With Oracle-managed files, bigfile tablespaces
make datafiles completely transparent for users. In other words, you can perform operations on tablespaces, rather than the underlying datafiles.
