Explanation

Oracle control files are critical metadata files that record the physical structure of the database. They store the names and locations of all physical database components including data files, redo log files, and tablespace information. Parameter files contain initialization parameters, redo logs store transaction changes, and data files hold actual table data - only control files track component locations.
