Bill Busch, Senior Solutions Architect at Perficient, recently wrote a blog post about Oracle’s In-Memory database option:
Last month Oracle announced Oracle In-Memory database option. The overall message is that once installed, you can turn this “option” on and Oracle will become an in-memory database. I do not think it will be that simple. However, I believe Oracle is on the correct track with this capability.
There are two main messages with Oracle In-Memory’s vision which I view are critical capabilities in a modern data architecture. First, is the ability to store and process data based on the temperature of the data.
To learn more about temperature based storage along with the second main message, you can read Bill’s full blog post here.
