Oracle unveils Exadata Exascale, the premier intelligent data architecture for cloud computing

Today, Oracle introduced Exadata Exascale, a cutting-edge data architecture designed for the cloud that offers unparalleled performance for Oracle Database workloads such as AI processing, analytics, and transactions. With Exadata Exascale, organizations can benefit from the exceptional performance, reliability, availability, and security features of Oracle Exadata while significantly reducing costs. This new architecture is now available through Exadata Database Service on Exascale Infrastructure and Oracle Database 23ai on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), with plans for future availability in other cloud environments.
Exadata Exascale is a revolutionary approach to utilizing Exadata Cloud Infrastructure, providing users with virtualized, database-optimized infrastructure on shared compute and storage pools for easy scaling and cost-effective use. Small and large organizations alike can now leverage the power of the Exadata database platform for all data workloads at a starting price of just a few hundred dollars per month.
One of the key features of Exadata Exascale is its pay-as-you-go model that offers fully elastic resources without additional IOPS charges. Users can specify the number of database server ECPUs and storage capacity they need, with databases distributed across pooled storage servers for enhanced performance and availability. This eliminates the need for dedicated servers, reducing infrastructure costs by up to 95% and allowing for flexible online resource scaling.
The architecture also includes an Intelligent Storage Cloud that leverages RDMA-capable storage to distribute databases across multiple servers, optimizing data processing and ensuring fault tolerance. Additionally, the Exascale platform incorporates AI Smart Scan technology for faster AI vector search operations, as well as intelligent OLTP and analytics capabilities for improved performance and scalability.
Oracle’s Exadata Exascale has been praised by users for its flexibility, efficiency, and security features, making it an ideal solution for organizations looking to accelerate innovation and maximize the benefits of a cloud-based database environment. The platform’s ability to seamlessly scale resources, perform high-demand data processing, and support various workloads positions it as a leading option in the cloud services market.
Industry experts, like Carl Olofson from IDC, recognize the potential impact of Oracle’s Exadata Exascale in shaping the future of cloud-based data infrastructure. By combining the strengths of Exadata with the agility of cloud platforms, Oracle has created a comprehensive and intelligent data architecture that caters to organizations of all sizes. With the introduction of Exascale, Oracle has set the bar high in the industry, prompting a response from competitors to match its advanced capabilities and benefits.
