What is the difference between Oracle OpenWorld 2012 and Olympics?

by Roman Kharkovski

Last week I attended Oracle OpenWorld conference in San Francisco, CA. One thing that struck me was the number of claims about imaginary records broken by Oracle – starting with the Larry’s keynote on Sunday and continuing every day on technical tracks. Here are few things that were announced by Oracle in the past week:

  • New version of the Exadata machine X3-2 (shipment date is unknown)
  • New version of the Exalogic machine X3-2 (shipment date is unknown)
  • Oracle Database and Java public and private cloud services (available now)
  • Oracle Database 12c pre-announcement (to be shipped “sometime in 2013”)

Read analysis of these Oracle announcements in the full blog post here: What is the difference between Oracle OpenWorld 2012 and Olympics?.

by Roman Kharkovski

Oracle says IBM is behind in system integration, clearly attempting to obscure the fundamental gap between IBM PureSystems and Oracle’s Exa series. Read detailed post here: PureApplication delivers expertise. Exalogic requires it…

Last week at Impact IBM’s Jerry Cuomo delivered a compelling overview of the differences between new IBM PureApplication System and Oracle Exalogic. Watch the recording of the session:
