MicroStrategy Certifies Its Analytics Platform for Oracle Database In-Memory

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 1, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- MicroStrategy^® Incorporated (Nasdaq: MSTR), a leading worldwide provider of enterprise software platforms, today announced that the MicroStrategy Analytics Platform™ version 9.4.1 is now certified to be compatible with, and optimized for, Oracle Database 12c with the Database In-Memory option.  MicroStrategy will be highlighting this integration at Oracle OpenWorld 2014, Moscone Center South Exhibition Hall, booth #2415.

The integration of the MicroStrategy Analytics Platform with Oracle Database In-Memory brings a number of benefits to joint customers:

• Easy to adopt — No application changes are required for existing MicroStrategy customers.

MicroStrategy works closely with Oracle's database development team to help ensure optimized connection points. MicroStrategy leverages the processing power of Oracle Database 12c in its Mobile Platform and enterprise analytics by pushing analytics to the database. 

Additionally, MicroStrategy Analytics Platform version 9.4.1 has achieved Oracle Database Ready, Oracle Exadata Ready, Oracle Exalogic Ready and Oracle SuperCluster Ready status through the Oracle PartnerNetwork (OPN).
