Comparison of SAP, Oracle and Dynamics ERP

April 15th 2015 Posted at Databases
Comments Off on Comparison of SAP, Oracle and Dynamics ERP

SAP and Oracle are both leaders in the Enterprise Resource Planning software field. These two giants have different approaches to the software and the software architecture. If a comparison of SAP and Oracle is done, it is seen how different both the rivals and their products are. Both the giants earn a major chunk of the market profits relating to their fields. SAP and Oracle compete in the same market and aim for the same industries but both have different approaches and strategies.

SAP is a major player in the Enterprise Resource Planning software market. Systems Application and Products in Data Processing or SAP was founded in the 1970s and gained a lot of success. SAP worked in collaboration with other companies and has consultants which provide training to their customers. The ERP package from SAP can be scaled to thousand users but the disadvantage is that the vendors force the customers to change according to the SAP software. Therefore SAP may or may not be the right package for you according to the company requirements. It is a good choice if the organization is short of time and resources. SAP is based on core processes and follows a fixed patter. SAP may result in high implementation costs and budget overruns. SAP now highlights NetWeaver to decrease the complexities.

Oracle is very well known for the database systems and Enterprise Resource Planning systems. It has strong software support and a stable hold in the market. Oracle gained popularity because it is based on one database system and the products can be easily integrated with the other models from other vendors. Enterprise Planning Resource systems from Oracle are based on Supply, Demand and Finance. It provides a system that can fit more than thousand users. Oracle is a good choice for building a unique system that will suit and fit according to the business. Oracle claims that it avoids unwanted costs and thereby lowers the costs of implementation of the Enterprise Applications. Oracle has shown some benefits through the Return on Investment studies. It provides a better integration to different applications based on new technologies.

Microsoft Dynamics ERP solutions offer easy solutions that fit into the current IT system. There are some advantages of Dynamics in comparison of SAP and Oracle. Dynamics provides scalability up to 2,250 users and meets the demands of the growing business needs. It offers a low cost of ownership to maintain a competitive edge in the market. Microsoft Dynamics provides solutions designed to meet the requirements of specific industries. Oracle and SAP suit large organizations and may not be apt for small scale business unit. Dynamics can be used for small sized companies because of its lower costs. It also offers a better generic solution instead of verticals. The implementation time is lesser in comparison to SAP and Oracle and Dynamics offers a better cost predictability too.

The comparison of SAP, Oracle and Dynamics can be used to choose the right one for your company. All three handle international requirements and scalability well.

Best Practices in Oracle Archiving

April 14th 2015 Posted at Databases
Comments Off on Best Practices in Oracle Archiving

Oracle Archiving is a strategy in which data is moved out of the production system to reduce the volume and increase application and reporting performance while maintaining access to critical business data through Oracle Application or BI layer.

Organizations running enterprise applications depend on fast application response and reliable reporting windows to run their businesses. Business applications retain their information in underlying databases from Oracle, IBM, Informix and others. As data in these databases grows, up to 80% of data is considered inactive and performance of the application and reporting can degrade and impact overall business performance. A comprehensive strategy to proactively manage data for performance and storage optimization must be formulated to improve application performance and reduce total cost of data retention.

Impact of Data Growth on the Organization

Faster servers, higher network bandwidth and cheaper storage have allowed IT organizations to manage data growth through hardware upgrades rather than by implementing comprehensive data management strategies. The prevailing hardware strategy is not sustainable as data growth exceeds the ability of new hardware to maintain application and reporting performance. Compounding the problem are tough economic times, restricted IT budgets and new green IT solutions that are putting pressure on organizations to reduce hardware, power and cooling infrastructure in the data center.

Furthermore, there is a downstream burden on IT productivity that is a direct result of large production databases. Unlike document storage systems, business applications and databases are undergoing constant patch and upgrade cycles. The systems need to be duplicated many times over for test and development purposes.

Archiving Oracle Applications and Databases

Archiving Oracle Applications and databases has numerous benefits for the organization, from increasing application performance to reducing IT infrastructure costs to ensuring long term data retention needed for regulatory and legal compliance.

1. Archiving for Information Lifecycle Management

Information Lifecycle Management (ILM) is a comprehensive data management strategy for managing data from inception, protection, security and storage to disposal. It also takes into account the costs and risks of data retention. Oracle Application archiving is a critical step in any Oracle ILM strategy that manages data for compliance, cost and business continuity reasons through data tiering, cost appropriate storage mediums and secure, long term data retention.

2. Archiving to Improve Performance
Steps to deploying data archiving include defining data classes, creating storage tiers, developing access and migration policies and understanding the compliance requirements for broad classes of data. Using tools such as Oracle ILM Assistant or other data classification strategies to identify candidates for archiving, organizations then create and deploy policies for archiving and disposal that meet access and compliance requirements. Data can then be archived to lower cost storage mediums but maintain access through the native application or BI layer before performance is negatively impacted.

3. Archiving for Test and Development Productivity

Application archiving increases DBA productivity by reducing the size of production databases. Clones needed for test and production or disaster recovery clone more quickly with far less storage. For a 500GB production system, that translates into 48 copies that occupy 24TB of storage space alone, and this does not even account for the time and resources needed to make 48 full-size clones.

4. Archiving for Compliance

Sarbanes-Oxley, Basel II and HIPAA are just a few of the regulations that are requiring organizations to save more and more data. Documents email, and, increasingly, application data are being requested in both legal and civil proceedings. Ignorance of the data or inability to produce requests for documents are not defensible strategies in court for not producing requested data. Organizations are looking for archiving solutions that will meet compliance requirements yet be cost effective. Deploying data archiving with efficient, low cost storage mediums such as MAID will allow organizations to meet both cost and compliance requirements.

Conclusion

Archiving Oracle Applications and databases gives users the best opportunity to maintain application and reporting performance in a cost-effective way. Long term data retention requirements, restricted IT budgets, and business productivity pressure make Oracle database archiving a viable and proven approach for managing performance, storage and IT infrastructure.

Q Software to Showcase the First Mobile Security App for JD Edwards EnterpriseOne at COLLABORATE 15

April 13th 2015 Posted at Databases
Comments Off on Q Software to Showcase the First Mobile Security App for JD Edwards EnterpriseOne at COLLABORATE 15

Denver, CO (PRWEB) April 09, 2015

Q Software Global, an Oracle Gold Partner and provider of security management and compliance solutions for JD Edwards users, will showcase their new Profile Manager Mobile app at COLLABORATE 15, a Technology and Applications Forum for the Oracle Community in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA from April 12-16.

“Last Autumn we introduced Profile Manager, which allows IT teams to delegate some of the workload of processing and approving users’ requests for Role Assignments whilst keeping control of the final assignments,” says Mike Ward, Vice President of Q Software. “Now we’re exploiting the excellent mobile integration facilities in JD Edwards EnterpriseOne to extend functionality to mobile platforms, so that staff who are out of the office can submit or approve Role Assignment requests without needing a JD Edwards login.”

Fully integrated within JD Edwards, Profile Manager organizes the tasks into distinct processes, so that responsibilities can be shared between business and technical users as appropriate to individual companies’ working practices and needs. A workflow enables nominated users to request Role assignments on behalf of themselves or their staff. Requests are then routed to appropriate Approvers to decide whether or not the access should be granted, then approved requests are routed to an Assigner, who can optionally run Segregation of Duties checks before implementing the assignment in the live system. Notifications are issued automatically at all stages, and a full audit trail of all activity is maintained.

Benefits include:

Profile Manager reduces the workload on skilled IT technical staff whilst ensuring that they maintain control of the actual implementation of the assignments.
Business managers are empowered to take responsibility for approving assignments within their own departments.
Where required, proactive Segregation of Duties checks can be performed before assignments are implemented, to avoid the risk of violations being introduced into the live system.
The system maintains a complete audit trail, as all activity is logged within the JD Edwards environment.

With the Profile Manager Mobile app, without needing to login to JD Edwards, managers on the move can quickly review and process any approval requests that are awaiting their attention, or submit new access requests, depending on the responsibilities that have been assigned to them.

“This technology gives approved users a modern, easy-to-use interface to progress time critical tasks wherever and whenever they choose, whilst ensuring that appropriate controls are in place to prevent unauthorized activity,” says Ward.

Q Software will demonstrate Profile Manager Mobile on Booth # 225 at Collaborate 15.

MySQL – To Be Or Not to Be

April 11th 2015 Posted at Databases
Comments Off on MySQL – To Be Or Not to Be

Oracle’s acquisition of Sun Microsystems is great for Oracle, but I can’t imagine how it will be beneficial for the MySQL community.

Clearly MySQL has presented challenges for Oracle’s business model, and as one of the most followed open source initiatives, MySQL based applications are making significant impact against commercial business. Although MySQL is GPL, they do have a commercial following that ultimately has given rise to cheaper and faster solutions.

Consider this, Yahoo which was once the king of search engines and to many was the Internet portal of choice was once solely based on Oracle. Even the name Yahoo, which is a really an acronym for, “Yet Another Hierarchical Officious Oracle”, has its roots back in the software giant.

But today Google is clearly the leader in Internet search and taking the lead with such innovations as Google Apps and Google Analytics. Google is a die-hard MySQL shop, along with many of the industry’s leading top-tier vendors. MySQL provides a different take on database architectures, by keeping the data engines smaller and more nimble than Oracle. And let’s face it, MySQL is free, and even for commercial users it is very cost effective.

Oracle wants to maintain their $ 90 billion dollar a year market share, and what better way to resolve competition than to buy the competitor? So, what will this mean for all the new application companies that have built their solutions on MySQL- Google, SugarCRM, EM7… and the tens of thousands of people who use MySQL each and every day?

Honestly, anything’s possible as only Larry Ellison knows, and he’s not talking about MySQL to the press. One thing’s for sure, MySQL’s Falcon project, which was designed to replace the InnoDB license which Oracle bought from underneath MySQL several years ago, will likely never see the light of day.

I don’t think Oracle wants to become the next Microsoft, and drive users to wage open source war against them. Instead, I would hope that Oracle embraces the MySQL community and understands that there exists distinctly different market segments that leave plenty of room for both to exist. Oracle could take this opportunity to give MySQL commercial users the support and service they request and expand a new business practice around commercial implementation of MySQL. Even further, they could engineer an upgrade for those looking to gracefully migrate to an Oracle based solution from MySQL.

Perhaps that’s hopeful thinking on my behalf. Either way, Oracle’s next move is an important one, as there’s already discussion and some movement around splitting code branches of MySQL’s open source projects. Drizzle is one such initiative, where former Sun and MySQL die-hards decided to create a new spin against the tried-and-true MySQL codebase.

If the evolution of Linux can foretell the path of MySQL, it’s highly likely that other new code-branches will start appearing in the not too distant future. Perhaps different flavors, with different data engines which further promote the community initiatives seeking quicker solutions that seemingly go unheralded by corporate giants.

No matter what, the next couple of years will be very interesting. We will see if Oracle can nurture this dynamic global community to scale their business to new heights, or if they let down one of the most proficient and powerful open source communities.

‘Unexpected End of File’ MySQL Error

April 10th 2015 Posted at Databases
Comments Off on ‘Unexpected End of File’ MySQL Error

MySQL is a popular relational database management system that stores data in form of tables (as rows and columns). It runs as server and provides access to a number of databases connected to it. MySQL works on different platforms, including Windows and Linux. On occasion, you find these MySQL tables as unreadable and giving some errors. If you have valid backup, you should delete the damaged database and restore from it. However, in case of no backup or invalid backup, you need to use MySQL Repair software as repair tools for damaged databases.

As a practical example, while accessing MySQL tables, you might receive below error message:

“Unexpected end of file”

You encounter this error message when you run query on the database and it crashes unexpectedly.

Cause

The prime reason of the above error message to occur is corruption of MySQL database table. This can happen due to improper locking of table, unexpected shutdown, virus infection, corruption of header, and similar other reasons.

Solution

To resolve table corruption of MySQL table, you need to carry out these steps in order:

Check the database for corruption errors. For this, you should use CHECK TABLE command and make sure that the server is running while you apply the command:

CHECK TABLE tablename [options]

Options used are QUICK, FAST, EXTENDED etc. For MyISAM tables, you can alternatively use ‘mysqlcheck’ or ‘myisamchk’ utilities.

If the above check reports corruption, you should repair it using REPAIR TABLE command with QUICK and EXTENDED like options:

REPAIR TABLE tablename [options]

In case of MyISAM tables, you can also use ‘mysqlcheck’ or ‘myisamchk’ utilities.

If performing the above two steps doesn’t resolve the database corruption errors, check the status of your backup. If you find the backup as valid and complete, delete the damaged database table and use your backup to restore it.

In case of no backup availability and invalid backup state, MySQL Recovery software can be used. These are read-only MySQL Repair tools to safely repair and restore damaged MySQL databases.

Stellar Phoenix Database Recovery For MySQL is the finest tool to repair and restore corrupt MySQL tables. It supports MySQL 5.x. and can recover database files for both InnoDB (.ibdata, .ibd and .frm) and MyISAM (.myd, .myi and .frm) database storage engines. This MySQL Recovery software restores all database objects, like tables, relations, primary key(s), and others. It can recover databases of Windows and Linux platforms and is compatible with Windows Vista, XP, 2003, and 2000.

Gram Smith is a self employed Internet entrepreneur and product reviewer Stellar Phoenix Database Recovery For MySQL is the premier MySQL Repair tool that can instantly repair and restore corrupt MySQL databases. It supports InnoDB (.ibdata, .ibd and .frm) and MyISAM (.myd, .myi and .frm) files. MySQL Recovery

MySQL – The Golden Retriever

April 9th 2015 Posted at Databases
Comments Off on MySQL – The Golden Retriever

Do you know what is common among these three web sites – Google, YouTube, and Wikipedia? Other than of course the ability to search through millions of pages of information, sort the results and rank them, all in a matter of seconds? A database management system called MySQL.

A database management system allows you to store data and provides the ability to sort, search and retrieve data. MySQL is the most popular Relational Database Management System (RDBMS) that uses the Structured Query Language (SQL) to add data to a database, retrieve it, update it and also process it. MySQL is powerful enough to allow multiple users to work with it at the same time, providing fast access to them all and at the same time ensures that unauthorized persons are not given access. Compared to commercially available databases that require you to shell out tens of thousands of dollars for a license, MySQL is a bargain because it’s free to install and use.

MySQL is not just popular because it’s free and open source though that does add to its appeal – it is popular because it has great processing speed, proven reliability and excellent security features. Most importantly it offers tremendous ease of use and flexibility. MySQL is completely portable and can be used on Unix, Linux and Windows systems.

However, what has made MySQL the defacto choice for databases on millions of web sites is the way it can be used in combination with PHP (a popular scripting language used mainly in web development) to deliver dynamic web pages. It is this powerful combination that has led to the creation of some stunning Web 2.0 applications like digg.com or del.icio.us or in the development of community networking software like phpBB or phpNuke.

You may wonder if this combination of MySQL and PHP works well for all kinds of web sites. Well, if you are planning on starting a portal for a bank with millions of account holders and with extremely sensitive transactions taking place every second, you may want to bring in other databases for comparison on security, reliability and maintaining transaction integrity. However, for most small or medium-scale web sites, MySQL is a perfect choice. Whether you are operating a medium sized e-commerce web site or running a high traffic networking portal, you will be more than happy with the speed, reliability and security that MySQL provides. In fact, there are few databases that match the speed of MySQL for small or medium web sites.

Another important feature of MySQL is that obtaining upgrades, security patches or help with your installation is easy. There is a very large development community associated with MySQL. This community continues to add new features to MySQL and act almost immediately on any bug that is reported to them. There is an even larger user community that interacts through blogs and forums and here you will find answers to most of your MySQL related questions.

MySQL is being used increasingly with PHP and many other open source components to develop and deliver cutting edge Web 2.0 applications. MySQL is so popular because it’s open source, fast, secure and reliable. It’s golden!
