Oracle Analytics Update & Plan for 2012
On Friday 16th December, Charlie Berger (Sr. Director, Product Management, Data Mining & Advanced Analytics) posted the following on the Oracle Data Mining forum on OTN.
“… soon you’ll be able to use the new Oracle R Enterprise (ORE) functionality. ORE is currently in beta and is targeted to go General Availability in the near future. ORE brings additional functionality to the ODM Option, which will then be renamed to the Oracle Advanced Analytics Option to reflect the significant adv. analytical functionality enhancements. ORE will allow R users to write R scripts and run them inside the database and eliminate and/or minimize data movement in/out of the DB. ORE will provide R to SQL transparency for SQL push-down to in-DB SQL and and expanding library of Oracle in-DB statistical functions. Packages that cannot be pushed down will be run in embedded R mode while the DB manages all data flows to the multiple R engines running inside the DB.
In January, we’ll open up a new OTN discussion forum specifically for Oracle R Enterprise focused technical discussions. Stay tuned.”
I’m looking forward to getting my hands on the new Oracle R Enterprise, in 2012. In particular I’m keen to see what additional functionality will be added to the Oracle Data Mining option in the DB.
So watch out for the rebranding to Oracle Advanced Analytics
Charlie – Any chance of an advanced copy of ORE and related DB bits and bobs.

Brendan,
I've posted a new deck of slides that discuss the new Oracle Advanced Analytics Option (Oracle Data Mining and Oracle R Enterprise) here: https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B0-rK48p3i0sNDAwOThhMzgtMTAwNy00YzkyLWJkYjQtYjYzM2IyZDA0Zjg1
