As a keynote speaker at this
year’s Oracle Day 2012, “Your Vision, Engineered” I had the honor and pleasure
of speaking to a crowd of about 150 attendees about our recently released,
fourth generation Exadata X3 In-Memory Machine in a presentation entitled “Oracle
Exadata X3 - Transforming Data Management”. The general theme of the thirty-minute talk was how to
improve performance, lower costs, and build the foundation for your cloud
service platform using Exadata.
Since its introduction in
2008, I’ve watched first-hand as Exadata has evolved from a data warehouse-only
system to an OLTP and DW in-memory database machine capable of storing hundreds of
terabytes of compressed user data in flash and main memory. Many of my Exadata customers are now purchasing additional systems
as they continue to standardize Oracle 11g deployments on the best database platform
available.
