18. “We ran 9 of our most complex processes on the Oracle Database
Appliance, and executed them in a fraction of the time it takes on
our existing platforms. The multi-core head room enables us to do
much more, with much less equipment, in much less time!
That’s truly great bang for the buck!”

spend time on engineering the drives, o/s packages, or patching.
When Oracle says one button install – they’re right!”
