Oracle Accessibility Conformance Report

VPAT® Version 2.0 - October 2017

Name of Product:

Oracle R Advanced Analytics for Hadoop 2.8.1

Product Description:

Oracle R Advanced Analytics for Hadoop (ORAAH) is one of the components in the Oracle Big Data Connectors software suite, an option to the Oracle Big Data Appliance. ORAAH provides an R interface for manipulating data stored in HDFS, using both HIVE transparency capabilities and mapping HDFS as direct input into Machine Learning algorithms.

ORAAH does not have a graphical user interface, rather it is an API. It executes in the open source R environment or the Oracle R Distribution. The installer is a command line interface.

Date:

07-Jan-2020

Archive Note:

This VPAT applies to only version 2.8.1. It does not apply to any versions of Oracle R Advanced Analytics for Hadoop after this. This VPAT has been superseded by Oracle R Advanced Analytics for Hadoop 2.8.2.

Evaluation Methods Used:

Oracle's policy is to design, develop and test both products and documentation to be accessible. The recommended styles of testing for accessibility include: (i) algorithmic automated tests, (ii) human judgement tests such as tool-assisted tests, visual inspection and manual operation, and (iii) testing with assistive technology by people with and without disabilities. Additional information about Oracle's accessibility program is available on http://www.oracle.com/corporate/accessibility/index.html
