Back in Europe following Oracle CloudWorld in Las Vegas, I review my top takeaways from the big Oracle customer conference.
Highlights
00:12 — Last year there was a strong focus on GenAI and Chairman Larry Ellison was very optimistic about its capabilities. One big development this year was the introduction of over 50 GenAI agents in the Fusion Cloud application suite, demonstrating Oracle’s commitment to leveraging AI for real business value.
00:44 — Another major takeaway was the announcement that AWS has become the third multi-cloud partner for Oracle, following similar partnerships with Microsoft and Google Cloud. The integration means users will have a consistent experience across Oracle and AWS platforms.
00:59 — CloudWorld also highlighted the importance of a more open approach to the cloud championed by Ellison. This shift aims to make multi-cloud architecture more accessible and responsive to customers’ needs.
01:14 — Security was another important focus; there was discussion about using AI to enhance the security of the cloud rather than creating new vulnerabilities. Overall, the event underscores the company’s commitment to innovation in the cloud.
