Industrial Uses of Oracle Exadata Database Machine
We’re in the information age, and no business can succeed without leveraging the power of information. That is why there has been constant emphasis on the need to store, manage, control, and apply data to enable business growth. But ever-increasing volumes of data can pose a serious challenge to businesses, curbing their ability to use data in an efficient manner. To overcome this challenge, data warehousing and storage solutions are being employed by businesses today. And to better control and manage online transactions, online transaction processing (OLTP) applications are being used.
However conventional data storage, warehousing, and online transaction processing methods can often turn out to be ineffective and expensive. Hence, Oracle technology experts have designed a robust solution to address these issues- The Oracle Exadata Database Machine. The Oracle Exadata Database Machine is the only database machine that is capable of providing the best abilities for both data warehousing as well as OLTP applications, thus making it the ideal platform for consolidating on private clouds.
It is a complete package of servers, storage, networking, and software that is not only massively scalable but also highly secure. It offers several uses and benefits:
● Provides access to a broad range of functionalities that bring together the usefulness of data warehousing and online transaction processing applications into one system
● Combines hardware, software, and the integration between them in a single package from one vendor, ensuring seamless solutions
● Helps store up to ten times more data, thus improving the performance of all applications
● Delivers faster time–to-market by eliminating systems integration trial and error
● Combines features that help increase processing speed thus enabling better business decisions in real-time
● Reduces IT costs through consolidation and by minimizing used-disk space, improving data processing, and enhancing the back-up process
While adopting Oracle’s Exadata Database Machine can be highly beneficial to the business, it is important to remember that deploying and upgrading to a new Exadata database can be a complicated and drawn-out process. It requires a great amount of technical knowledge and expertise to streamline the implementation and to expand upon its capabilities with further applications. So it is essential to partner with an Exadata implementation expert who is uniquely qualified to help implement the right Exadata solution customized to suit the specific needs of the business and to best cater to the company’s requirements.
