<ul><li>A company using Exadata sparse clones for database provisioning faced slow materialization times for sparse clones compared to full clones.</li><li>The issue was identified as a result of Oracle sequentially performing online database move operations, slowing down the process.</li><li>Monitoring the materialization process was possible through queries on GV$SESSION_LONGOPS.</li><li>The company optimized the process using Python scripts with cx_Oracle driver, enabling parallel task execution and reducing the materialization time to that of creating a full PDB clone.</li></ul>
