REDWOOD SHORES, Calif., June 26,
2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Driven by strong customer demand
including more than 5,000 new Autonomous Database trials in Q4FY19
alone, Oracle has expanded its Autonomous
Database capabilities to help meet the needs of enterprise
customers who want to move their most mission-critical workloads to
the cloud. Today, Oracle announced the availability of the
Oracle Autonomous Database Dedicated service, which provides
customers with the highest levels of security, reliability, and
control for any class of database workload.
"Autonomous Database Dedicated enables customers to easily
transform from manually-managed independent databases on premises,
to a fully-autonomous and isolated private database cloud within
the Oracle Public Cloud," said Juan
Loaiza, executive vice president, Mission-Critical Database
Technologies, Oracle.
"Our Autonomous Database Dedicated service
eliminates the concerns enterprise customers previously had about
security, isolation, and operational policies when moving to
cloud."
The Oracle Autonomous Database Dedicated service provides
customers with a customizable private database cloud running on
dedicated Exadata Infrastructure in the Oracle Cloud. It provides
an ideal database as a service platform, enabling customers to run
databases of any size, scale and criticality. This unique
architecture delivers the highest degree of workload isolation,
helping protect each database from both external threats and
malicious internal users. The level of security and performance
isolation can be easily tailored to the needs of each database. The
Oracle Autonomous Database Dedicated service also features
customizable operational policies, giving customers greater control
over database provisioning, software updates, and availability.
The Oracle Autonomous Database Dedicated service is the latest
offering within Oracle's Autonomous Database portfolio. Oracle
Autonomous Database builds on 40 years of experience supporting the
majority of the world's most demanding applications. The first of
its kind, Oracle Autonomous Database uses ground breaking machine
learning to provide self-driving, self-repairing, and self-securing
capabilities that automate key management and security processes in
database systems like patching, tuning and upgrading, all while
keeping the critical infrastructure constantly running for a modern
cloud experience. Running on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure,
Oracle Autonomous Database delivers significantly lower costs than
alternatives.
"In e-commerce, today's greatest challenge is meeting customer
demands for order fulfillment. Speed is no longer a luxury – it is
a requirement," said Craig Wilensky,
CEO, Jasci. "With Oracle Autonomous Database, we have seen our
performance increase by as much as 75x. Combine that with the
elasticity and security offered by Oracle Cloud, and the
possibilities are endless. With this database, Jasci is actively
reshaping a new status-quo for our industry."
Low Code Meets Autonomous
Today, Oracle is also
announcing availability of a rich set of built-in Autonomous
Database developer capabilities, including Oracle Application
Express (APEX), Oracle SQL Developer Web, and Oracle REST Data
Services so developers can quickly develop and deploy new
data-driven applications.
Oracle's industry-leading low-code application development
platform, Oracle APEX, enables developers
to quickly build scalable and secure enterprise apps with
world-class features. Oracle APEX can be used to import
spreadsheets and develop a single source of truth web application
in minutes, create compelling reports and data visualizations,
or build mission-critical data management applications.
With Oracle APEX preinstalled and preconfigured in
Oracle Autonomous Database, developers can start
building applications within minutes.
Oracle also announced availability of Oracle SQL Developer Web,
a web interface for working with the Oracle Autonomous Database,
enabling developers to easily run queries, create tables, and
generate schema diagrams. With native Oracle REST Data
Services support, developers can now develop and deploy RESTful
services for Oracle Autonomous Database, making it easy to develop
modern REST interfaces for relational data.
Industry Analysts Validate Market Leadership
