Press and Analysts Praise Oracle Database 11g

After 15 million test hours and 36,000 person-months of development, and with more than 400 new features and enhancements, Oracle Database 11g is being touted as the most innovative and highest-quality software product Oracle has ever announced.

“Oracle Database 11g represents significant improvements in the manageability and usability of the database across many dimensions of this very comprehensive relational database management system product,” said IDC analysts following the product’s formal announcement in July.

When Oracle President Charles Phillips described the Oracle Database 11g launch as “a big deal for Oracle and the IT industry,” “it was no overstatement,” said Intelligent Enterprise, citing Oracle’s market dominance and the innovations in the release. Given the anticipated response from competing database suppliers, “it seems the database market is more like a competitive hot bed than a ‘mature and commoditized’ realm … with growth rates averaging 14.2 percent.”

“Users plan for quick upgrades [to Oracle Database 11g],” said ComputerWorld, which interviewed Oracle database users following the product announcement. “They expect to quickly upgrade to the new 11g release, which adds new security and management features.”
