The latest issue of Policy Truth is now available and I encourage you to take a look. Oracle would have you believe that its database machine has overcome the performance limitations experienced by its customers for years. The new system is, after all, 10x faster than existing Oracle implementations. Not so impressive considering competing appliances have been 10-100x faster than Oracle for years now!

In this uncertain economic climate, businesses are required to be more nimble than ever, using the most accurate data to maintain existing customer relationships, add new customers and operate as efficiently as ever are issues at the forefront of most corporate strategies.

That’s why, when you are evaluating appliances, take into consideration all of your options. As the user, you are in control - so get involved, demand the truth and full disclosure, ask the tough questions and require onsite testing. And if a vendor says “no” to any of your demands simply tell them “when the phone doesn’t ring, you’ll know it’s me”.

Thank you and have a nice day.
