What is the difference between Datapump & export/import?

Answer Posted / kittu_chintu2005

Export/Import: traditional backup of oracle database, we can't resume the export/import job if we stop the job in middle. We can't attach any job to running job @ exp/imp. We need not to create a file structure @ oracle level

Datapump: It's introduced from 10g. We can resume the datapump job if we stop the job in middle. We can attach a datapump job to running job. We need create file structure @ oracle level and OS level.
