Oracle has unveiled a new integrated infrastructure product that will aim to consolidate data workloads into tolerant and manageable platform for users.
With the Virtual Compute Appliance, the company intends for customers to get a product that will integrate compute, network and storage infrastructure into one system, Oracle said Tuesday.
According to Oracle, application and service deployment is intended to become more streamlined by using Oracle VM templates for over 100 Oracle software packages that could reduce deployment from days to hours and minutes, the company said.
“By engineering hardware and software together, Oracle has created an engineered system that’s highly available and extensible even after acquisition,” said Wim Coekaerts, senior vice president of Linux and virtualization engineering at Oracle.
The Virtual Compute Appliance is built to have the ability expand storage capacity with Oracle ZS3 Series storage systems while increasing throughput and reducing latency in high-density virtualized environments, Oracle said.
Oracle executives Scott Genereux and Wim Coekaerts hosted a webcast early Tuesday to discuss the Virtual Compute Appliance.
