JavaScript vs. Oracle Big Data SQL Cloud Service vs. Python vs. WebAssembly Comparison Chart

Oracle Big Data SQL Cloud Service enables organizations to immediately analyze data across Apache Hadoop, NoSQL and Oracle Database leveraging their existing SQL skills, security policies and applications with extreme performance. From simplifying data science efforts to unlocking data lakes, Big Data SQL makes the benefits of Big Data available to the largest group of end users possible. Big Data SQL gives users a single location to catalog and secure data in Hadoop and NoSQL systems, Oracle Database. Seamless metadata integration and queries which join data from Oracle Database with data from Hadoop and NoSQL databases. Utilities and conversion routines support automatic mappings from metadata stored in HCatalog (or the Hive Metastore) to Oracle Tables. Enhanced access parameters give administrators the flexibility to control column mapping and data access behavior. Multiple cluster support enables one Oracle Database to query multiple Hadoop clusters and/or NoSQL systems.

WebAssembly (abbreviated Wasm) is a binary instruction format for a stack-based virtual machine. Wasm is designed as a portable compilation target for programming languages, enabling deployment on the web for client and server applications. The Wasm stack machine is designed to be encoded in a size- and load-time-efficient binary format. WebAssembly aims to execute at native speed by taking advantage of common hardware capabilities available on a wide range of platforms. WebAssembly describes a memory-safe, sandboxed execution environment that may even be implemented inside existing JavaScript virtual machines. When embedded in the web, WebAssembly will enforce the same-origin and permissions security policies of the browser. WebAssembly is designed to be pretty-printed in a textual format for debugging, testing, experimenting, optimizing, learning, teaching, and writing programs by hand. The textual format will be used when viewing the source of Wasm modules on the web.
