Oracle's Expanding Cloud Ecosystem?

Oracle’s Expanding Cloud Ecosystem?

By Michael Fauscette on July 1, 2013

 Last week was quite the week in the cloud computing world. At one point in the week, I thought that maybe I should check and see if in fact, hell had frozen over. But in tech never say never I guess. Anyway, as you probably guessed I’m talking about Oracle’s three new partner announcements, which […]

Ruminations on Oracle, Microsoft, Salesforce and Those Deals

By Esteban Kolsky on July 1, 2013

I wish I could get a penny for each time I was asked in the last week or so what I thought of Oracle’s new GTM (go-to-market) strategy. I have said this many times but I finally have some time, 30 minutes or so, to sit down and write it . First, this is Oracle’s […]

Ellison, Benioff Announcement — Final Thoughts

Ellison, Benioff Announcement — Final Thoughts

By Denis Pombriant on July 1, 2013

You know what they say about the third time doing something.  They say a lot and some of it is bound to be true even if it only means throwing away the high and low scores and dealing with what’s left like they do in Olympic diving competition.  This is the third and final post […]

Ellison, Benioff Meet the Press

Ellison, Benioff Meet the Press

By Denis Pombriant on June 28, 2013

The joint conference call for press and analysts between Larry Ellison and Marc Benioff was both more and less than expected.  It was weird to hear them talking to each other in complementary terms rather than firing shots across each other’s bows but all that history was more show than anything else, I think.  To […]

Yikes!  Is Oracle Reeling In Salesforce And NetSuite?

Yikes! Is Oracle Reeling In Salesforce And NetSuite?

By Naomi Bloom on June 26, 2013

The Manchurian Candidate Goes Silicon Valley After two intense days, a real geekfest with clients, and then catching up on the info tech happenings so far this week, I’m exhausted.  Yes, we’re all buried in Oracle announcements, and it’s astonishing how wild is some of the coverage. Oracle’s partnering with Microsoft is interesting (you’ll have to […]

And Oracle and Netsuite

And Oracle and Netsuite

By Vinnie Mirchandani on June 26, 2013

  When Oracle announced its cloud extensions via Microsoft and Salesforce this week, I wondered where NetSuite was in the mix. It was announced today, in a nuanced positioning. NetSuite ERP and Oracle Fusion HRM will go to market together in the mid market. And I was pleased to see for NetSuite’s sake, Oracle acknowledge its role in […]

The Latest Disruption

The Latest Disruption

By Denis Pombriant on June 26, 2013

The stunning announcements that Microsoft and Salesforce.com would become more engaged with Oracle by using its middleware, hardware and associated other products has left many people agape and agog and for good reasons.  We are all more accustomed to covering the initiation of trends and their evolution than their resolutions. Initiations have terms associated with […]

Salesforce and Oracle in a Deal

Salesforce and Oracle in a Deal

By Denis Pombriant on June 25, 2013

To me it looks like Oracle is buying SFDC but to skirt the SEC and DOJ, and to avoid sticker shock, they’ll do a slow motion merger and present the market with a fait accompli in 9 years…
