Forrester reports on Oracle’s Translytical platform for Oracle environments. The report cites it Database in-memory, an option that extends Oracle Database to support analytics in the same database as the one running transactions.

In addition, Oracle leverages the Oracle Exadata appliance that supports a large-scale flash cache to perform fast in-memory and in-flash columnar operations. Customers like Oracle’s capability to support many workloads including OLTP, IoT, microservices, multimodel, data science, AI/ML, spatial, graph, and analytics.

According to the report, customers like the platform’s ease of use, ease of expanding existing Oracle applications to take advantage of translytics, general data security capabilities, and technical support, as well as the Cloud at Customer offering.
