EMC speeds up Oracle migration
EMC and Oracle have joined forces to speed up the time it takes customers to upgrade to the new Oracle Database 10g.
The EMC Oracle Database 10g Accelerator combines the features of EMC networked storage systems and software with professional services from both EMC and Oracle.
Staff from both organisations will work with each customer to figure out which requirements and optimal configurations are necessary.
Oracle will re-locate the customer's database onto an EMC Symmetrix, EMC CLARiiON or EMC Celerra networked storage solution, implementing Oracle Flexible Architecture for optimal configuration.
EMC then uses EMC TimeFinder or EMC SnapView software to replicate the database for testing and accelerated migration to Oracle Database 10g.
At the end, EMC and Oracle will test the configuration and work with the customer's IT department to make sure the configuration meets the company's business objectives.
William Hurley, the senior analyst for Enterprise Strategy Group, said: "Customers are looking for the fastest, most efficient way to deploy or upgrade their databases. EMC and Oracle are working together to minimise cost, complexity and risk, while allowing customers to quickly and efficiently implement a database and storage grid."
