More Actian PSQL Pros →

"The solution is very fast.""It efficiently handles low-code data and supports read-and-write operations for clustering.""It accelerates query processing, which in turn speeds up operations and streamlines workflow, and ultimately enhancing productivity.""Normally, every database server uses hard disks. In-Memory has a feature, apart from their database, which is very good. When we start our server, all your data needs loading memory. We can use that. It's a very good feature. I think they added this feature in 2019. We can mount memory in the partition, create partitions in there, and create table space from that spot to share. It's a really good feature. We use it a lot.""The scalability of the solution is very good. It's able to support large amounts of data.""Oracle Database In-Memory is a suite of features that improves performance for real-time analytics and mixed workloads.""The on-premise version is stable. We have different teams and resources for the server side, for admin, and for development. We can easily take care of all the services and applications.""The product offers high scalability."
