Wow - I think somebody let the marketing guys get a hold of that one!
Oracle Database 11g Release 2, the second release of the award winning
Oracle
Database 11g, provides the foundation for IT professionals to
successfully deliver more
information with higher quality of service, make more efficient use of
their budgets, and
reduce the risk of change in data centers. By deploying Oracle
Database 11g Release 2
as their data management foundation, organizations can utilize the
full power of the
worldʼs leading database to:
• reduce server costs by a factor of 5,
• reduce storage requirements by a factor of 12,
• improve mission critical system performance by a factor of 10,
• increase DBA and Developer productivity by a factor of 2,
• eliminate idle redundancy in the data center
To quote Ned Pepper in True Grit (it's a really old John Wayne movie
for those of you too young to have heard of it):
"I call that bold talk for a one-eyed fat man."
I mean, I can't wait to try out some of the new features, and no doubt
there are some very interesting enhancements, but seriously, how did
they calculate all those numbers? Marketing guys crack me up.
