- manigandham 9y agoDoes anyone actually use the Oracle Cloud? From my attempts, it's only full of misery and broken tech.
- Tloewald 9y agoSo you're saying it's an Oracle product?
- suyash 9y agoIt's growing rapidly in Enterprise IT on all all three fronts IAAS, PAAS, SAAS.
- CobrastanJorji 9y agoDo you know something nobody else does? Because the news seems to indicate that its growth has been slowing for a year now, which is not good news in a rapidly growing market. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/oracle-apos-cloud-growth-disappointing-130500540.html https://finance.yahoo.com/news/oracle-apos-cloud-growth-disa...
- nickbauman 9y agoOracle increasingly resembles the old CA. A huge licensing portfolio company with some tech/r&d on the side where good software goes to die.
- avip 9y agoIt's called brand recognition.
- monocasa 9y agoHell, Oracle got started by cloning the SQL API.
- pjmlp 9y agoWhich they payed for, unlike Google has done with Java. SQL standard and the respective certifications have to be payed for.
- monocasa 9y agoThe ANSI/ISO standards came out nearly a decade after Oracle's DB was released. Before that, Oracle ripped off Chamberlin and Boyce's work. Which they should be able to do, because APIs shouldn't be copyright-able.
- pjmlp 9y agoAnd how do you think standards get written, out of thin air? At least Oracle payed something back, unlike Google, ripped off Sun and then stepped on it on their dying breath. If it wasn't for Oracle we would be stuck porting Java 6 to other languages.
- monocasa 9y agoMost of the folklore seems to point to the ANSI/ISO work being done by IBM.
