La edición digital de la revista Oracle Magazine de Septiembre/octubre 2018 ya está disponible

September/October 2018 issue of Oracle Magazine. I called our July/August issue “The Autonomous Issue,“ because it covered the latest Oracle Cloud Platform autonomous services and focused on the self-securing aspect of autonomous. But that autonomous label absolutely describes this issue too. To avoid confusion, let's call September/October “The Autonomous In Action Issue,“ because it covers the latest Oracle autonomous service announcement and goes deeper into what the self-driving power of autonomous means to the business, data experts, developers, and more.

 

This issue's cover story explores Oracle Cloud Platform autonomous services, Oracle Autonomous Database Cloud, and in particular, the availability of Oracle Autonomous Transaction Cloud Service. The article describes the value of autonomous, from 99.995% uptime and automatic patching to lower operating and labor costs and “nothing-to-learn” administration.

 

In Autonomous is Easy, Oracle Executive Vice President Amit Zavery describes the common features and strategies for Oracle Cloud Platform autonomous services and calls out some specific machine-learning-powered features in different Oracle services. In Development Opens Up, Mike Hichwa, vice president of software development at Oracle, talks about database development, Oracle Autonomous Database Cloud, open source support in Oracle Database, and more. And for some examples of new opportunities for DBAs in the autonomous database world, read longtime Oracle contributor Jeff Erickson's latest column, Hey, Data Experts: Voice Assistants Are Calling Your Name.
