Oracle Larry: we will have new weapons to deal with SAP HANA

Bkjia exclusive Article] Oracle CEO Larry herison described this product as follows: "At the Oracle OpenWorld Conference held In San Francisco In week 1, 4th, we will release the Oracle In-Memory option ". Larry said at a press conference that "our existing users can easily and quickly use the new In-Memory function without making any changes to their Oracle database applications. It is like turning on the In-Memory switch, Oracle databases can start to work at the processing speed of billions or even tens of billions of data per second ."

Yes, it sounds like Larry is attacking SAP, an Oracle competitor, in another way. Sap hana is a Memory Database In-Memory Database, which means it can process a large amount of data In a very short time.

SAP once said that its HANA database has been growing at a high speed, and HANA has become SAP's most successful product. In the summer of 2013, SAP announced that its HANA users had received 1500 users in the last two years.

This number is a small number compared to the Oracle user group. However, Oracle cannot ignore HANA, because SAP won't be favored by users who use low-price policies, but by ultra-high-speed computing technology. Many SAP customers are using SAP and Oracle software at the same time, and SAP is urging them to use HANA to replace Oracle databases.

The In-Memory product is not the first time that Oracle has responded to SAP, nor is it the last time. Oracle has begun to provide the Oracle TimesTen memory database.
