First Database Machine for OLTP
Sun and Oracle introduced the first database machine for online
transaction processing (OLTP) called the Sun Oracle Database Machine
or Oracle Exadata Version 2. It is based on Sun hardware, including
FlashFire technology, along with Oracle Database 11g Release 2 and
Oracle Exadata Storage Server Software Release 11.2. Designed to
significantly speed up OLTP, data warehousing, and mixed database
workloads, the companies claim this latest version is twice as fast
as Version 1 for data warehousing.
