Oracle has released Oracle database version 12.1.0.2 and it has many new features, and a major one every body is waiting for (in-memory).
The release is a “full instillation” so no need to install first 12.1.0.1
**other features in the new release are:
- Improvements to Oracle Multi-tenant
- Advanced Index Compression
- Zone Maps
- Approximate Count Distinct
- Attribute Clustering
- Full Database Caching
- Rapid Home Provisioning
this new “Enterprise Edition” is certified on Linux and Solaris platforms so far.
a very good paper released by Oracle for the new in-memory feature can be found here:
