Product Details

What is MySQL Heatwave?

HeatWave is presented a massively parallel, high performance, in-memory query accelerator for Oracle MySQL Database Service that accelerates MySQL performance for analytics and mixed workloads. HeatWave is presented by Oracle as a faster, cheaper competitor to Amazon Redshift, Snowflake, and Amazon Aurora. MySQL Database Service with HeatWave enables customers to run OLTP and OLAP workloads directly from their MySQL database. This is to eliminate the need for complex, time-consuming, and expensive data movement and integration with a separate analytics database. The new MySQL Autopilot uses machine-learning techniques to automate HeatWave, to make it easier to use, and to further improve its performance and scalability. HeatWave is optimized for Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI).

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
For our analytics and Machine learning workloads, we need an extremely fast and reliable Database Management System and the same need is fulfilled by MySQL Heatwave. MySQL Heatwave is so fast that we don't have to move our data from MySQL RDBMS to another data warehouse system such as Databricks, which was an added workload for us. MySQL Heatwave has made our analytics work extremely efficient.
Pros and Cons
  • Orders of magnitude faster than vanilla MySQL Heatwave
  • Analytics and ML Workloads can be directly integrated
  • Available as a managed service on Oracle Cloud
  • The JDBC interface is consistent with other databases
  • On Demand Scalability
  • MySQL Autopilot abstracts away most of the configuration with regards to query tuning and optimization
  • Pricing can be a concern if not configured properly
  • Not available as a standalone or on premise offering. Only available through OCI
  • No Jobs interface like that in Databricks with Spark and Delta Lake
Likelihood to Recommend
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.
Most Important Features
  • MySQL Heatwave Autopilot for automated configuration and performance tuning
  • Regular backups
  • Speed of query execution
  • Auto scaling of underlying infrastructure
Return on Investment
  • We no longer have to write data pipelines in Spark anymore for executing ML/Analytics Workloads
  • Execution time of the analytics platforms has reduced considerably
  • Overall time to market has gone down drastically
Alternatives Considered
There is no other product in the market like MySQL Heatwave. The other competitive offerings are Databricks Lakehouse and Cloudera which essentially are Data Analytics Platforms and Data Warehousing Solutions. They do have SQL interfaces through Delta Lake and Hive but they run complicated Spark Jobs which are time consuming and much slower than MySQL Heatwave.
