Oracle Database In-Memory

Today’s information architecture is much more Dynamic than it was just a few years ago. Business users now demand more decision-enabling information, sooner. With competitive market, business decision based on day-1 data is now not at all acceptable. Due to this Demand, IT department is either forced to refresh the Analytical Data Warehouse at a regular interval, which could be in few hours or are forced to run Analytical Queries on their Operational Systems. Both of these approaches have their own challenges. Refreshing every few hour means, the Data Warehouse is down for the duration of the time of refresh – again unacceptable. Running Analytical queries on operational system means a kind of a balancing act between Transactional Workloads and Reporting style queries that scan large amount of data. 

Oracle Database In-Memory addresses these challenges. A Single database can now efficiently support mixed workloads, delivering optimal performance for transactions while providing real-time decision-enabling reports to the Business Users.

In this session, we will walk through the capabilities of Oracle In-Memory Database with few examples. This technical challenges will provide you the insight of the challenges discussed and how in-memory addresses it without much of the configuration changes.
