I just recently did some evaluation on [_OLIVA**NOVA**_](https://www.integranova.com) (original URL <https://www.care-t.com>) along with [TimesTen In-Memory Database](https://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/timesten/overview/index.html) as the persistence layer. _OLIVA**NOVA**_ is a model driven software development environment that generates code for business software**_._** Certified database management systems include all major relational database management systems such as Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle, DB2 and so on.

One of _OLIVA**NOVA**_'s customers required instant responsiveness and very high throughput. So, this was a welcome opportunity for me to evaluate TimesTen, an In-Memory database. I created the model, generated the source code and specified the driver and connection string. In a few minutes I was able to test the application against TimesTen.

It works great and the responsiveness is just awesome. TimesTen can be set-up as an embedded or standalone database. It can also be used as an in-memory database cache for Oracle databases.
