• Using Oracle In-Memory Database Cache to Accelerate the Oracle Database

  Oracle In-Memory Database (IMDB) Cache enables you to improve application transaction response time by caching the performance-critical subset of tables and table fragments from an Oracle database to the application tier. Caching data using IMDB Cache is superior to other caching techniques as it brings full relational functionality, incremental scalability coupled with location transparency, stellar performance, and automatic maintenance of data consistency. Read this white paper to learn how Oracle In-Memory Database Cache significantly reduces response time, while improving overall application throughput, by bringing data closer to the application, and by processing queries in an in-memory database.

• Cost Effective Security and Compliance with Oracle Database 11g Release 2

  The increasingly sophisticated nature of information theft, and the continued emergence of new data privacy protection regulations worldwide, requires strong data security. Effective information security starts by protecting data at the source - the databases in which it resides. Historically most organizations have relied on network perimeter and application level security to restrict access to sensitive data, leaving their databases and the sensitive information inside exposed. With Oracle Database 11g powerful privileged user and multi-factor access control, data classification, transparent data encryption, auditing, monitoring, and data masking, organizations can deploy reliable data security solutions that do not require any changes to existing applications, minimizing the costs associated with regulatory compliance and the deployment of strong internal controls.
