The Future of Oracle Essbase is Here!
Essbase, like Oracle, Apple, and Intel – is a strong and mature brand. Mature companies cannot survive without continued innovation, and this is exactly what Oracle has been doing with Essbase from the day of its inception. The Essbase product that Oracle has today still carries the same core values, although its technology is light years away from the one which was released 20 years back. When it first came to market, Essbase was the first multidimensional database to introduce capabilities like drill and pivot in Excel that we take for granted today. Over the years, product innovation continued by taking a departmental solution and transforming it into Enterprise-grade status with high-speed dynamic aggregation, clustering and disaster recovery. Essbase can be classified into four different types based on the time period it was released. Check benefits of Oracle Cloud Implementation Services
