density while staying within constrained envelopes of power and cooling. Beyond computational capacity, this server also provides very large memory support (up to 512 GB) and extremely high levels of I/O throughput, with up to four times the I/O capacity of earlier single-socket UltraSPARC T2 implementations.

Sun SPARC Enterprise T5440 servers employ very high levels of

using Modern Mainframe Virtual Tape with deduplication, resulting in significantly lower operating costs.

Mainframe users of all types, from very large data centers with multiple mainframes at large banks, retailers and government agencies to smaller data centers with single, entry-to-midsized mainframes, are using Luminex and Data Domain to realize the advantages described

applications, even when a proprietary BI solution is already deployed enterprise-wide. And while initial implementations are small, very large deployments of 20,000 users or more are in the works.

Why are enterprises adopting Open Source - particularly when proprietary BI solutions are already in place? Lower cost of ownership is clearly the primary attraction. The

been traditionally supplied by vendors using conventional relational databases. However, for more than a decade a sub-genre of the relational database has been making inroads into the market, using a technology known as a column-based relational database (sometimes referred to as CBRD). While we will explain the differences between a conventional and a column-based approach in

JSON has proven to be a very easy to use, yet immensely powerful data interchange protocol. However, by itself JSON lacks a number of important expressibility capabilities and efficient client/server data interaction must usually be customized

hassles because all these tasks distract them from their core business.

To deal with this situation, small and mid-sized businesses usually have very limited resources and a very tight budget.

The best alternative available to these businesses begins with hosting their security solutions on an external hardware infrastructure, reducing operating costs and the total cost

Active Directory becomes very complex to manage in Windows networks. Administrators leave, users are given elevated privileges, applications require special accounts - very soon you have an Active Directory full of security weaknesses. Product Type

For these reasons, BI is often limited to the few large companies that can afford it - implementations are inflexible, limited in scope, and used by very few people. Fortunately, a revolution in BI tools and techniques now makes it possible to better meet customer needs with an

promises. Deduplication should be effective and scalable so that it can find a small segment of matching data no matter where it is stored in a large system. Deduplication also needs to be efficient or the memory and computing overhead of finding duplicates in a large system could negate any benefit. Finally, deduplication needs to be simple and automatic or the management

This paper explores the data explosion and why column-oriented database systems are able to provide the boost needed to gain the performance edge. As organizations continue to employ larger data warehouses, the need for performance will continue to outpace the capabilities of traditional

This paper presents a solution that tackles the challenge of upgrading or migrating an Oracle 8i or 9i database to Oracle 10g or 11g - without taking any database downtime. Key technology components used are GoldenGate Software's Transactional Data Management (TDM) software and Oracle's Cross Platform Transportable Tablespace feature
