Oracle has unveiled Oracle Database 23ai, a new database technology integrating AI capabilities. The release, now available as a suite of cloud services, focuses on streamlining AI utilisation, enhancing application development, and supporting critical workloads.
One of its key features, Oracle AI Vector Search, makes data search simple by enabling users to search documents, images, and relational data based on conceptual content rather than specific keywords or data values.
AI Vector Search facilitates natural language queries on private business data within Oracle databases, eliminating the need to move or duplicate data for AI processing. This real-time AI integration within databases enhances efficiency, security, and operational effectiveness.
Oracle Database 23ai is available in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) on Oracle Exadata Database Service, Oracle Exadata Cloud@Customer and Oracle Base Database Service, as well as on Oracle Database@Azure.
Juan Loaiza, Oracle’s Executive Vice President of Mission-Critical Database Technologies, highlighted the significance of Oracle Database 23ai, stating it as a game-changer for global enterprises.
“AI Vector Search combined with new unified development paradigms and mission-critical capabilities makes it simple for developers and data professionals to build intelligent apps, increase developer productivity, and run mission-critical workloads,” she said.
Key enhancements in Oracle Database 23ai include AI Vector Search for semantic search, Oracle Exadata System Software 24ai for accelerated AI processing, and OCI GoldenGate 23ai for real-time data replication across heterogeneous stores. These innovations empower developers to build intelligent apps, leverage JSON and graph data models, and ensure mission-critical data availability and security.
With Oracle’s continuous advancements in AI-integrated databases, customers can expect improved operational efficiency, enhanced data security, and accelerated innovation in enterprise applications. Oracle Database 23ai represents a significant step forward in AI-driven database solutions, promising a robust foundation for businesses embracing AI technologies.
