What's New in Oracle Data Mining 11g?

Oracle Data Mining, an option to Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition, enables users to extract information efficiently from the very largest databases and build integrated business intelligence applications. Data analysts can find patterns and insights hidden in their data. Application developers can quickly automate the extraction and distribution of new business intelligence—predictions, patterns and discoveries—throughout the organization.

Oracle Data Mining can be used to solve the following kinds of data mining problems: classification, prediction, regression, clustering, associations, attribute importance, feature extraction and sequence similarity searches and analysis (BLAST). All model building, scoring, and metadata management operations are performed using Oracle Data Mining or a PL/SQL or a Java-based API; all operations occur entirely within the relational database.
