Oracle Named 'Leader in the Enterprise Data Warehouse Market'


NEW DELHI: Global software and cloud major Oracle was cited as a leader in the Forrester Wave: Enterprise Data Warehouse (EDW) fourth quarter report of 2015 for its mature EDW solution focused on cloud, real-time, and big data.

In a report, the US-based research firm Forrester said: "Oracle's dominant position in the database market, growing support for data management appliances, and end-to-end data integration platform give it a competitive advantage."

The research carried out by the firm evaluated 10 of the most significant EDW vendors across 31 criteria.

"Database is in Oracle's DNA. Oracle's solutions for Big Data, In-Memory technology and Engineered Systems enable enterprise data warehouses to be leveraged for smarter business decisions, leading to innovations, operational efficiency and an enhanced customer experience," Andy Mendelsohn, executive vice president, Oracle Database Server Technologies, said in a statement.

"Oracle views this ranking as a testament to the value that our on-going innovations provide to customers," Mendelsohn added.

At "OpenWorld" conference in San Francisco last year, Oracle announced the Oracle Cloud Platform for Big Data and also extended the Oracle Exadata Database Machine to the cloud.
