Be
Like Apple and Alibaba
In the new digital world, business and technology leaders must
think a lot more about the whole than the individual pieces. And
thinking in terms of platforms rather than individual departmental
functions will point them in the right direction. Consider the
likes of Apple, Facebook, and Alibaba. Take away each of their
platforms, and what's left won't be recognizable.
Although digital platforms might be technically sophisticated,
there's a strong case for conceptual simplicity and elegance. Think
in terms of an application platform, an information platform, and
an infrastructure platform. Read more about how and why such
platforms help companies survive and thrive in the digital economy
in this analysis by Oracle
senior VP Chuck Hollis. |

many larger enterprises are adding cloud-based planning, budgeting,
reporting, cost management, and other nontransactional functions

system for 1,500 finance users across 40 countries, in a postmerger
environment. |

Are your teams ready to double the number of applications releases
they do in a year? Businesses will need that pace of tech
innovation to survive, argues Oracle vice president Siddhartha
Agarwal, because the cloud enables you—and rivals—to launch and
scale an app so much faster than before. What are Agarwal's other
six predictions for developers? |
Two Technical Choices That Reveal Oracle's Cloud Infrastructure
Strategy
Organizations are still cautious about moving mission-critical
workloads to the cloud, in part because the first-mover
infrastructure-as-a-service suppliers haven't catered enough to
enterprise needs. Here are just two examples of the IaaS technical
decisions Oracle has made that reveal where it expects to differentiate itself from
Amazon Web Services in meeting those enterprise
needs. |
