How does backup work for compressed Oracle DBs (Exadata)

Question

Hello,I would like to know how exactly backups work for compressed Oracle DBs on a Exadata platform.Does it need to rehydrate the data before sending it to a mediaagent?If so, is there any specific requirement for that to happen? like extra RAM or extra disk?Is it the same for non Exadata environments?Thanks!Sergio.
