I was able to "play" on an Exadata server last week. I was somewhat impressed - I "have been told" (big grain of salt applied) that the same query executed on a Niteeza and Teradata server was killed after 23+ hrs and completed in 43 seconds on the Exadata server. 4x2TB tables joined w/no indexing looking for specific data.
It appears they are going to be trying to make in-roads into the very large DW environments. If it functioned as advertised - I have a 250TB db that the sort of queries I tested with should be much faster than my current cluster. Received on Fri Feb 06 2009 - 09:38:15 CST
