Standard Edition One: It is suitable for single-server or highly branched business
applications with limited features.

Standard Edition: It delivers all facilities provided in Standard Edition One. In addition,
it provides larger machine support and Oracle Real Application clustering service.
Enterprise Edition: This edition is packed with security, performance, scalability, and
availability required for highly-critical applications in which online transaction
processing is involved.
Express Edition: It is an entry-level edition that is free to download, install, manage,
develop, and deploy.

An Oracle database offers the following features to meet the requirements of powerful
database management:

Scalability and Performance: Features like Real Application Clustering and Portability
make a database scalable according to its usage. In a multiuser database, it is required
to control data(https://vue.comm100.com/chatwindow.aspx?siteId=90004140&planId=88106100-2271-458b-b0c7-1d3108bb141c)
consistency and concurrency, which Oracle contemplates.
Availability: Real-time applications require high data availability. High-performing
computing environments are configured to provide all-time data availability. Data is
available during the time of planned or unplanned downtimes and failures.
Backup and Recovery: Its layout has complete recovery features to recover data from
almost all failures. In the event of a failure, the system must swiftly recover the
database to ensure high availability. The unaffected portions of data remain accessible
while the affected ones undergo recovery.
Security: Securing the data is always the top priority. It provides mechanisms to

control data access and usage. Implementing authorization and editing, user actions
can prevent unauthorized access and allow distinct access to the users.

Importance of Oracle
It is among the oldest companies which provide database management solutions. The
company has always focused on Enterprise requirements and acknowledged the latest
technology trends. That’s why its products are always embellished with new features. For
instance, the latest Oracle database 19C is also available on Oracle Cloud. It offers users to
choose from the different database editions that suit their needs to provide a cost-effective
solution.
Benefits
We have talked about the features of its database. These features give Oracle an edge over
other competitors. Now, we will look at the advantages.

1. Performance: It has methodologies and principles to achieve high performance. We can
implement performance tuning in its database to retrieve and alter data faster to improve
query execution time and application operations.
2. Multiple Database: Its database supports managing multiple database instances on a
single server. It provides an Instance Caging method to manage CPU allocations on a server
running the database instances. Instance caging works with the database resource manager
to manage services over multiple instances.
3. Editions: As we discussed above, the different editions Oracle offers benefit users to
purchase editions as per their application requirements. They can seamlessly update the

5. Failure Recovery: RMAN (Recovery Manager) is the feature of an Oracle DB which
recover or restore the database files during downtimes and outages. It supports online,
archived backups and continuous archiving. Users can also use SQL* PLUS for recovery,
called user-managed recovery, which is supported by it. There is an export utility available
in the database to add user-managed backups.
6. PL/SQL: The database supports PL/SQL extension for procedural programming.

Why do We Use Oracle?
It is a database management software product. A database contains an organized collection
of information. A database management system stores the data and provides highperformance, authorized access, and failure recovery features. It provides a software
solution that is easy to use and manages database operations, from Personal to Enterprise
level applications.
