Its like a HeatWave, Burning in my Heart with Nipun Agarwal

Published: March 29, 2022, 10 p.m.

Nipun Agarwal has been a guest before on \u201cScreaming,\u201d but now he has graduated up to Senior VP at Oracle! Which means that Corey can throw harder questions Nipun's direction. Now that Nipun is a SVP, he is well suited to take them on, and we\u2019re the better for it as he has much to say about what Oracle has been up to.\n\nNipun describes in detail some of Oracle\u2019s more recent innovations, including MySQL HeatWave. Which if you\u2019ll allow a terrible descriptor is MySQL with some \u201cmagic layered on top of it.\u201d Nipun, however, is able to tell us exactly what the magic is and how it works. Nipun dives into the details as he and Corey discuss MySQL and HeatWave when it comes to processing, analytics, machine learning, moving data around and costs, its competition with other databases, the value it brings to customers, and much more!
