Product Features
Analytics and Data Warehousing - Use Data Warehouses On-Premises or in the Cloud
Advanced data warehousing and analytics technologies, such as Oracle Database In-Memory and Oracle Multitenant, enable analytics teams to perform deeper analyses on scalable data warehouses in less time.
Customers can deploy Oracle Database on-premises or use it in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) for technology development and enhanced scalability.
Comprehensive and Scalable Application Development
Developers can quickly build scalable, high-performance applications using SQL, JSON, XML, and a variety of programming languages. Oracle Database 19c includes a robust suite of development tools, such as APEX and integrated database features, to streamline and enhance the development process.
Comprehensive High Availability
Oracle Database 19c offers built-in features and options such as Oracle Active Data Guard and Oracle Real Application Clusters, enabling efficient scaling and integration of customer databases. IT teams can utilize the same features for on-premises deployments and in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) to safeguard critical customer databases and maximize availability.
Machine Learning - Faster, Smarter Data-Driven Decisions
Oracle Database accelerates machine learning (ML) with powerful algorithms that run directly in the database, eliminating the need to move or reformat data to build and execute ML models. Data scientists can integrate ML capabilities into database applications using Python, R, SQL, and other tools, delivering analytical insights through user-friendly dashboards.
Database Manageability—Integrated Enterprise-wide Oracle Database Management
You can enhance the performance and availability of enterprise-level databases through consistent management processes using a single virtual management platform. DBAs reduce their workload by integrating the monitoring and management of databases running on-premises, in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), and in third-party clouds using Oracle Database Management solutions.
Performance and Scalability – Optimizing Database Performance Across the Enterprise
Meet stringent performance requirements in real-time environments and data center deployments through a series of features designed to optimize for low latency and high throughput.
Database Security – Protecting Critical Data
Oracle's database security solutions reduce the risk of data breaches, making it easier for customers to meet compliance requirements. Encryption, data masking, privileged user access control, activity monitoring, and auditing enable IT teams to highly secure Oracle Database environments and identify potential vulnerabilities.
Database Cloud Services – Agile, Flexible, and Secure Database Management
The optimized suite of database features in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) allows resources to closely align with their specific needs, providing customers with high-efficiency and low-cost operations. Companies achieve digital transformation by combining fully managed Autonomous Database capabilities, the performance and management of Exadata Cloud Service, and the low costs of Oracle Database, MySQL Database, and NoSQL Database Cloud Services.
