How Oracle came to be 1976 LJE System R White Paper 1977 Founded Software Development Laboratories (SDL) Bob Miner, Ed Oates, Bruce Scott and Larry Ellison 1979 Relational Software, Inc. (RSI) Sand Hill Rd., Menlo Park 1979 Oracle V2

First RDBMS: Version 2 June 1979 FIRST Commercial SQL RDBMS Impressive First SQL Joins, Subqueries Outer Joins, Connect By A Simple Server No transactions, Limited Reliability Two task architecture as 16 bit system allowed only 64K process size Written in Macro-11

Portability: Version 3 March 1983 New Implementation Designed for Portability Written in C Single Source Used VAX/VMS shared memory capabilities for secure single task architecture Architectural Changes Transactions, but no multi-versioning AI/BI files Oracle Corporation name established Selling the idea of Relational Database

Reliability: Version 4 October 1984 Larger Installed Base (well, it had one) Architectural Improvements Read Consistency & Multiversioning

Multi-Version Concurrency: Version 4 Query Queries see consistent data No read locks, unlimited rowlevel update locks Better performance X

Reliability: Version 4 October 1984 Larger Installed Base (well, it had one) Architectural Improvements Read Consistency & Multiversioning* Portability: From Mainframe to Desktop VM, MVS VAX MS-DOS (in less than 640k!)

Parallel Server (RAC today)

Transaction Processing: Version 6 July 1988 New Architecture Performance and Scalability (first SMP) TPO - Unlimited row locks Hot backups Oracle Parallel Server PL/SQL (client side)

Cooperative Server: Oracle7 June 1992 Architectural and Performance Improvements Shared SQL Cost-based query optimization DBA features improve ease of administration Data Integrity and Security Enhancements ANSI/ISO standard SQL with declarative integrity Roles-based security model simplifies security Trusted Oracle7 adds multilevel security

Cooperative Server: Oracle7 June 1992 Architectural and Performance Improvements Shared SQL Cost-based query optimization DBA features improve ease of administration Data Integrity and Security Enhancements ANSI/ISO standard SQL with declarative integrity Roles-based security model simplifies security Trusted Oracle7 adds multilevel security MS partners with Sybase

Cooperative Server: Oracle7 June 1992 V6 was all about architecture, V7 about features Stored Procedures Triggers Alerts Pipes Transparent 2PC Replication XA support Gateways to legacy systems.. MPP OPS

Oracle7.1 May 1994 ANSI/ISO SQL92 Entry Level Advanced Replication Symmetric Data replication Snapshot Refresh Groups Parallel Recovery Parallel Query Options query, index creation, data loading Read Only tablespaces

Oracle8.0 Warning Objects may be closer than they appear June 1997 Object Relational database SQL3 standard Partitioned Tables Advanced Queuing for message handling Parallel DML Net8 Connection Pooling Performance improvements in OPS The year of the Cartridge (image, video, time, spatial) TSPITR RMAN - Incremental backups, parallel backup/recovery Index Organized tables Deferred integrity constraints Reverse Key indexes Any VIEW updateable

The Internet Changes Everything: Oracle8i February 1999 XML, SSO, LDAP, WebDB/HTML DB, ifs, VPD, Java Browser-only Applications 1998 No further development of Client/Server Apps Network Computer

Oracle 9i February 1999 Unbreakable RAC Oracle Managed Files Multiple blocks sizes External tables

Real Applications Clusters - Cache Fusion Disk Array 1. User1 queries data 2. User2 queries same data - via interconnect with no disc I/O Server Node1 RAM inter connect Server Node2 RAM 3. User1 updates a row of data and commits 4. User2 wants to update same block of data 10g keeps data concurrency via interconnect

Oracle 10g 2003 Grid Full cache fusion in RAC Manageability Automated management Automated performance diagnosis Automated SQL tuning Automatic Storage Management (ASM)
