LIMERICK, Pa.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 30, 1999--
SpatialVision enables Oracle business clients to turn warehoused data
into relevant visual information from which informed decisions
are made to swiftly improve bottom-line results
SEDONA Corporation (NASDAQ: SDNA) is delighted that its Sedona SpatialVision web-enabled business-intelligence software is included in today's significant product "direction" announcement from Oracle Corporation (NASDAQ: ORCL) relating to the Oracle JServer, the server-side Java engine incorporated into the Oracle 8i database that provides an enterprise platform on which to deploy e-business applications.
"Sedona SpatialVision is a Java-based tool that enables enterprises to visualize corporate data stored in application databases, datawarehouses and data marts built with Oracle databases and Oracle Spatial. With Oracle JServer, Sedona can deploy server side components which use Oracle's three tier architecture to deliver tighter integration with enterprise application requirements." according to Colin Matthews, president of Sedona GeoServices Inc. "We believe that Oracle8i and Oracle JServer will accelerate the adoption of web-enabled business intelligence solutions by lowering the cost of administration and maintenance and by providing greater user accessibility than traditional client/server approaches."
About Oracle JServer...
The Java engine in Oracle8i, called Oracle JServer, is embedded right inside the database itself. This architecture, unique to Oracle8i, means that Java applications can leverage the state-of-the-art shared memory technology in the database kernel.
Unlike competing architectures that run Java outside the main server process, Oracle8i requires far less memory for each Java application user.
Oracle JServer is 100% compatible with Java standards, and includes a highly optimized Java VM, Enterprise JavaBeans server, CORBA ORB, and built-in JDBC drivers and SQLJ runtime.
Because all of these services are built into the database, they leverage its scalability, performance, and management tools, and are available on all of the 70+ hardware and operating system platforms supported by Oracle. |
