{"product_id":"9781430233930","title":"Expert Oracle Exadata","description":"\u003cp\u003eThroughout history, advances in technology have come in spurts. A single great idea can often spur rapid change as the idea takes hold and is propagated, often in totally unexpected directions. Exadata embodies such a change in how we think about and manage relational databases. The key change lies in the concept of offloading SQL processing to the storage layer. That concept is a huge win, and its implementation in the form of Exadata is truly a game changer. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eExpert Oracle Exadata\u003c\/em\u003e will give you a look under the covers at how the combination of hardware and software that comprise Exadata actually work.
