Datometry Launches Hyper-Q for Oracle Accelerating Cloud-First Data Warehouse Re-platforming
Datometry, the pioneer in Database Virtualization, announced support for Oracle applications in its flagship product Datometry® Hyper-Q™, the first database virtualization platform to make databases and applications fully interoperable. Datometry Hyper-Q for Oracle will enable enterprises to run their business-critical applications, originally written for Oracle, on Microsoft Azure Synapse, Google BigQuery or Amazon Redshift without the hassle of a painful database migration.
Datometry Hyper-Q empowers enterprises to run their existing applications on modern cloud data warehouses without rewriting or reconfiguring them, providing a significant reduction in time, cost and risk compared to attempts at manual migration. Using Hyper-Q for Oracle enterprises can re-platform their data warehousing workloads from Oracle to the public cloud within months.
“IT leaders dependent on Oracle today are increasingly desperate to move to cloud-native alternatives. However, conventional database migrations have long been the bane of the industry: they are incredibly expensive, time-consuming, and highly risk-laden,” said Mike Waas, CEO, Datometry. “Hyper-Q for Oracle changes the dynamics completely. With Hyper-Q enterprises can now re-platform their applications, originally built on Oracle, to a modern cloud data warehouse at a fraction of time, cost, and risk.”

NeuTigers Announces Study Exploring the Use of AI and Wearables to Detect and Prevent Sickle Cell Anemia Exacerbation Crisis
NeuTigers, an Artificial Intelligence company spun out of Princeton University, has announced a study to investigate the use of AI and everyday wearables such as the Withings ScanWatch to detect early symptoms of the Sickle Cell Anemia Vaso-Occlusive Crisis (VOC), and prevent the exacerbation of the disease and the costly hospitalization of patients. Conducted at Assistance Publique- Hôpitaux de Paris (AP-HP) by Prof. Frédéric Galacteros, the study will investigate NeuTigers’ StartDeep patients’ remote detection and prevention health platform to identify the digital signatures of impending chronic and/or acute crisis to enable early interventions, improve patients’ health outcome and overall quality of life.
The StarDeep platform miniaturizes AI using an advanced form of machine learning called Deep Neural Networks (DNNs). It can detect and identify the digital physiological signatures of various disease states deciphered from the collection of off-the shelf wearable medical devices data. Following successful studies and commercial solutions developed to detect respiratory conditions such as COVID-19, analysis of biomarkers for Diabetes, and assessment of mental health disorders for schizoaffective, major depressive, and bipolar, all with 90%+ accuracy, the technology will be investigated as part of a new integrated healthcare intervention paradigm in Sickle Cell Anemia.
Unlike traditional forms of linear machine learning, DNNs mimic how a brain works based on a principle called grow and prune developed at the Princeton Department of Engineering and Computing with co-Founder Prof. Niraj K. Jha. It is similar to how a toddler interprets the world and humans create energy efficient ‘’predictive models’’, that are very accurate, despite using during the learning phase very small data size.
“The best way to deal with a crisis is to avoid it happening in the first place. We are now entering a new era where medical early warning systems have become a reality,” said Adel Laoui, CEO and founder of NeuTigers. “We are excited at the possibility of deploying a technology that can save lives of patients dealing with Sickle Cell Anemia. The potential of the StarDeep platform to dramatically improve patient outcomes while slashing some of the highest costs of healthcare makes it one of the most exciting developments in preventative personal medicine.”
