Hi Pihu
Oracle Database is a hub of data which is treated as a unit. It is better known as RDBMS or simply as Oracle. It is an object relational database management system, which has been produced and marketed by Oracle Corporation.
Oracle Retail Advanced Science Engine (ORASE) is the centralized science engine that powers analytics for both the Oracle Retail Modeling Engine (ORME) and Oracle Retail Assortment and Space Optimization (ORASO) in support of retail business processes.
ORME performs data mining and calculates model parameters to support business processes in Oracle Retail Category Management, Oracle Retail Demand Forecasting (RDF), and Oracle Retail Analytics.The ORME 14.0 release contains the following modules: Customer Decision Tree, Demand Transference, Advanced Clustering, and Market Basket Analysis (a back-end process only). ORME solutions share a common workflow and user interface (UI). The common workflow lets users implement and interact with the new science modules using similar techniques.
