In Praise of In-Memory Data Management: An Inflection Point for Enterprise Applications
Academia Prof. Christoph Meinel (Hasso Plattner Institute (HPI), Potsdam, Germany) I’m proud that HPI and the cooperation between HPI and SAP has provided such an inspirational research environment that enabled the young research team around Hasso Plattner and Alexander Zeier to generate valuable and new scientific insights into the complex world of enterprise computations. Even more than that, they developed groundbreaking innovations that will open the door to a new age, the age in which managers can base their decisions on complex computational real-time analysis of business data, and thus will change the way how businesses are being operated.
Prof. David Simchi-Levi (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, USA) This book describes a revolutionary database technology and many implementation examples for business intelligence and operations. Of particular interest to me are the opportunities opening up in supply chain management, where the need to balance the speed of planning algorithms with data granularity has been a long time obstacle to performance and usability.
Prof. Donald Kossmann (ETH Zurich, Switzerland) This is the first book on in-memory database systems and how this technology can change the whole industry. The book describes how to build in-memory databases: what is different, what stays the same. Furthermore, the book describes how in-memory databases can become the single source of truth
