Another topic to review in this futuristic chapter was discussed somewhat in the Event intelligence on the computing edge with sensor integration section. But here we refer to expanding the capabilities by enhancing the latest engineered systems which are a combination of both hardware and software to provide completely integrated advanced Application solution platforms.
Oracle Event Processing, to some extent, already includes hardware assist capabilities, inherited from the integration with Oracle Coherence using Oracle Exalogic InfiniBand and Flash memory on Oracle Exa Series hardware. However, the ability for the event-driven platform to be more tightly "coupled" with the available hardware systems and to directly leverage and interact with specific hardware features that will accelerate logic processing performance and radically minimize application latencies, will be a focus area for the future.
The other interesting direction may involve...
