Description
Oracle’s SPARC T8 server is the world’s most advanced enterprise workload system. Compared with competitor systems, the co-design of hardware and software can significantly improve the performance of databases and Java applications, thereby increasing software utilization. Oracle’s breakthrough second-generation software chip technology used in the SPARC M8 processor accelerates Oracle Database In-Memory queries in Oracle Database 12c and supports real-time analysis of OLTP databases and Java streaming applications. Security in Silicon provides full-speed wide-key encryption, as well as detection and prevention of attacks on application data in memory. The combination of the world’s highest performance and unique software chip functions is the basis for building the best and safest mission-critical cloud infrastructure.
