According to a February 2010 report from independent analyst firm
Forrester Research, Oracle is a leader in predictive analytics and data
mining (PA/DM).
“The Forrester Wave™: Predictive Analytics And Data Mining Solutions,
Q1 2010,” written by Senior Analyst James G. Kobielus, states that
“Oracle provides a PA/DM solution portfolio that is built into its own widely
adopted DBMS, DW, data integration, and BI platforms, with a wide range
of prepackaged predictive applications, and it provides a powerful
assortment of algorithms for mining complex structured and unstructured
information types.”
An option to Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition, Oracle Data Mining
enables customers to integrate actionable predictive information and build
into business intelligence and other applications. Using the data mining
functionality in Oracle Database 11g, customers can easily find patterns
and insights otherwise hidden in their data warehouses.
The Sun Oracle Database Machine delivers increased Oracle Data Mining
performance by performing scoring of data mining models in Oracle
Exadata Storage Servers.
