AnalysisBy Doug Henschen, InformationWeek, Oct 4th, 2011
Presented by Group 7:Sam Tucker and Ayoung Noh
Summary
• Oracle is going to release new big data hardware and software
• Big Data Appliance• Supports NoSQL
• Implements R statistical analysis software
• Implements Hadoop for cloud and parallel processing
Big Data Appliance
Big Data Appliance
• Used for social media, web log, mobile and geospatial data
• Up to 432 Terabytes of storage
• Linux based
• Automatically generates Java code to run MapReduce functions
• Intended to make Hadoop more accessible
• Uses Oracle NoSQL – interprets new data on the fly without a schema
Exalytics Business Intelligence Machine• 40 CPU cores
• Exalytics suite has 1 terabyte of RAM (efficiently compresses data)
• Provides predictive and statistical models and graphical analysis
• Used in conjunction with other tools to bring them easily into memory: Hadoop and MapReduce
• Other Oracle products bring data into memory for analysis almost as quickly
Why is it interesting?
• Represents a new trend in DB Design
• Include an open-source version of Apache Hadoop software backed with Oracle enterprise support service
• Oracle R Enterprise will be backwards compatible with existing R applications
• Less than a year ago, Oracle said that NoSQL was unimportant
Relationship With Course
Relevant to chapters of
•Physical DB Design (current topic)
•Relational Data Model
•Data Mining
•Big Data etc.
