What is Oracle Database block size?

DB_BLOCK_SIZE specifies (in bytes) the size of Oracle database blocks. Typical values are 4096 and 8192 . The value of this parameter must be a multiple of the physical block size at the device level. The value for DB_BLOCK_SIZE in effect at the time you create the database determines the size of the blocks.
