REDWOOD SHORES, Calif., Oct. 24,
2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, Forrester Research named
Oracle a leader in translytical data platforms, a database category
which can handle a wide range of transactional and analytic
workloads. "The Forrester Wave™:
Translytical Data Platforms, Q4 2019" report1 cites
that, "unlike other vendors, Oracle uses a dual-format database
(row and columns for the same table) to deliver optimal
translytical performance," and that "customers like Oracle's
capability to support many workloads including OLTP, IoT,
microservices, multimodel, data science, AI/ML, spatial, graph, and
analytics."
"Oracle is pleased to be acknowledged as a leader by Forrester
for its translytical database capabilities," said Juan Loaiza, Executive Vice President,
Mission-Critical Database Technology, Oracle. "Oracle is setting
the bar for the industry by offering a single converged database
that brings together both transaction processing and analytic
capabilities to provide our customers a mission-critical
translytical data platform. Our converged database also provides
built-in machine learning, spatial, graph, and JSON capabilities
enabling our customers to easily run many kinds of workloads
against the same data."
The report states that Translytical is a hot, emerging market
that delivers a unified data platform to support all kinds of
workloads. The sweet spot is the ability to perform all of these
workloads within a single database, leveraging innovation in
in-memory, multimodel, distributed, and cloud architectures.
Translytical databases can support various use cases including
real-time insights, machine learning, streaming analytics, extreme
transactional processing, and operational reporting.
Forrester reports on Oracle's Translytical platform for Oracle
environments. The report cites Oracle Database in-memory, an option
that extends Oracle Database to support analytics in the same
database as the one running transactions. Existing Oracle
applications do not require any changes to the application in order
to leverage Oracle Database in-memory. Unlike other vendors, Oracle
uses a dual-format database (row and columnar representations for
the same table) to deliver optimal translytical performance. In
addition, Oracle leverages the Oracle Exadata appliance that
supports a large-scale flash cache to perform fast in-memory and
in-flash columnar operations. Customers like Oracle's capability to
support many workloads including OLTP, IoT, microservices,
multimodel, data science, AI/ML, spatial, graph, and analytics.
According to the report, customers like the platform's ease of
use, ease of expanding existing Oracle applications to take
advantage of translytics, general data security capabilities, and
technical support, as well as the Cloud at Customer offering.
