Oracle Database 11g Adoption Continues Across All Industries
A recent review of customers who are upgrading to Oracle Database 11g finds significant benefits in new features and capabilities in the release and concludes that Oracle Database 11g is helping simplify computing environments, lower cost and risk, and provide greater choice and flexibility.
Making Meaning from Data
Eli Lilly and Company is utilizing the semantic Web capabilities of Oracle Database 11g to facilitate the integration of data in the company’s pharmaceutical discovery business. Semantic technologies are designed to extend the capabilities of information on the Web and enterprise systems to be networked in meaningful ways.
Matching Spatial with Business Needs
First American Spatial Solutions supplies businesses and consumers with valuable property-related information products. First American has upgraded its land parcel database to Oracle Database 11g and the Oracle Spatial option to combine parcel boundaries, address information, and other property characteristics with exact latitude and longitude. The company adopted Oracle Database 11g because of the large volume of spatial data it processes and the ability to better integrate its business and spatial data.
Pinpointing Details in Spatial Data
Intermap Technologies creates uniform high-resolution 3D digital models of the Earth’s surface. The company is remapping entire countries and building uniform national databases consisting of elevation data and geometric images of unprecedented accuracy to be used within commercial applications such as energy, engineering, personal navigation, wireless communications, and insurance risk assessment, among others. Intermap’s data is stored, managed, and secured using Oracle Database 11g and the Oracle Spatial option. Intermap’s multi-terabyte database is protected using Oracle Active Data Guard option that replicates transactions to a mirrored system at Intermap’s disaster recovery site.
Managing Medical Images
Novartis is using the new DICOM data type in Oracle Database 11g as part of a solution for managing a centralized, standardized repository of medical image data during clinical trials. This solution, provided by IBIS Inc., facilitates image and metadata access, reduces costs, and enables data sharing and collaboration.
