ORACLE OPENWORLD, SAN FRANCISCO - October 4, 2011
News FactsAt his Oracle® OpenWorld 2011 general session, Oracle Senior Vice President of Database Server Technologies Andy Mendelsohn outlined the drivers fueling the growth of
Big Data and how organizations can prepare to acquire, organize and analyze the deluge of data to make better decisions.
Big Data is characterized by massive volumes, its high frequency, the variety of less structured data sources such as email, sensors, smart meters, social networks, and Weblogs, and the need to analyze vast amounts of data to determine value to improve upon management decisions.
All industries can potentially benefit from implementing a Big Data strategy including health care, manufacturing, public sector, retail, and telecommunications.
To help organizations manage these waves of data and analyze large data sets, Oracle today introduced a comprehensive solution for Big Data,
the Oracle Big Data Appliance.
The Oracle Big Data Appliance offers organizations everything they need to acquire, organize, analyze and maximize the value of Big Data within their enterprise.

An open source distribution of Apache™ Hadoop™;
