What’s next

What’s next:
For an interesting read that includes a discussion of what Exadata is and isn’t, the arithmetic of data processing, and the balance of power between hardware and software, you should visit Kevin Closson’s website where he’s republished the interview he gave to the Northern California Oracle User Group a couple of months ago.
The posting includes a list of the questions he answered, and a link to a pdf file of the magazine. Topics that come out of the interview include: what was all that flash cache really for, how much benefit should you see from a hardware upgrade whether it’s to Exadata or to non-proprietory hardware, how much more can you read from a proof of concept than the authors thought they were putting into it, how does a symmetrical system differ from an asymmetrical system.
