Oracle Exadata is an enterprise database platform that runs Oracle Database workloads of any scale and criticality with high performance, availability, and security. Exadata’s scale-out design employs optimizations that let transaction processing, analytics, machine learning, and mixed workloads run faster. Consolidating diverse Oracle Database workloads on Exadata platforms in enterprise data centers, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), and multicloud environments helps organizations increase…
If you need a highly performant database, which is much faster than a conventional RDBMS, without worrying about infrastructure scaling, performance tuning, and query optimization, go for MySQL Heatwave. This is the best in the market. It is also very secure and reliable. Regular backups ensure that your data is safe and consistent always.
First, get the database on Oracle. If you are in an Oracle stack, it would be much better to use the Oracle products. If you are driving a Ferrari, you wouldn’t put a Mercedes engine in it. If you are writing a query, you cannot rely on other brands. Since I'm an architect, when I look for a product, I look for performance.
The installation is easy because it comes out-of-the-box and you just start using it.
Previous to Oracle Exadata, we were using a normal Oracle RAC service. We were just waiting for this product to come out.
I'm currently writing a data warehouse on Exadata. Before this solution, we were aiming for this to be completed by 8 a.m., when our ETLs would finish. With the help of Exadata's special features, this was reduced to 3 a.m. This solution allows us to bring more data within the same time period. It provides us with more subject areas that provide more reports to our users. Our ETL times reduced to 65%, then to 50%.
Customize-able for specific functionality optimized for combination of online transaction or analytical processing.
Ability to serve mix workloads with resource management feature enables prioritizing allocation for certain workload.
Scale-able on-premise with compatibility for cloud deployment offers flexible solution for organization considering to transition from on-premise solution.
We have not used other platforms. So, after a market survey on price, support and facilities, we have decided to go for MySQL Heatwave platform. Which integrates many technologies and provide best support, service and pricing. Also, it provides access to database. The speed of the execution is very high.
Oracle Exadata Database Machine had the best performance overall hands down. It clearly beat the competition and we were seeing 1000X improvement on SAP HANA. Oracle Exadata Database Machine beat that without us refactoring our code. To achieve that in HANA, we had to refactor the code somewhat. Now this was for our limited POC of 5 use cases. Given the large number of stored procedures we had in Sybase, we need to capture more production metrics but we are seeing incredible performance.
Single support from a single vendor with both machine and database from Oracle, which is costing us less.
With Exadata, we need less technical manpower and less technical support. A business transaction with the integrated and centralized database helps us focus on other business needs.
We don't need to buy additional licenses and Hardware for the next 3 to 5 years.
