Oracle Business AnalyticsFor S.H.I.E.L.D., threat assessment begins with daily input—massive amounts of structured and unstructured data, collected from tens of thousands of sources, processed in Oracle engineered systems, and stored intelligently. But while raw information ultimately holds the answers, that information requires analysis before S.H.I.E.L.D. can finalize situation reports and take action. S.H.I.E.L.D. relies on analytics and enterprise performance management from Oracle to discover new ways to strategize, optimize operations, and capture new opportunities for success. Through a custom analytics dashboard, S.H.I.E.L.D. gains insights into all aspects of the operation and can initiate actions that keep humankind safe from threats—terrestrial and extraterrestrial.

AT THE CENTER OF EXTREME DATA With extreme performance in mind, S.H.I.E.L.D. Chief Systems Administrator John Smith assembled an integrated private cloud on a foundation of Oracle engineered systems and business analytics software. Individually, each system component delivers extreme performance. Together, the systems support even more information for deeper analysis and some of the most important decisions in the history of humankind.

Oracle Big Data ApplianceEvery day, S.H.I.E.L.D. captures terabytes of information from a variety of sources—surveillance video, satellites, sensors, field reports, network traffic—and all of this high-volume, high-velocity, and high-variety data is processed, filtered, transformed, and sorted in Oracle Big Data Appliance.

Exalytics In-Memory Machine X2-4When assessing threats, S.H.I.E.L.D. must quickly draw actionable insights from massive amounts of data. Oracle Exalytics’ advanced data visualization and exploration get the job done.
