Welcome to Oracle Corporation

 

THE INFORMATION COMPANY

 

Oracle’s business is information—how to manage it, use it, share it, protect it. For nearly three decades, Oracle, the world’s largest enterprise software company, has provided the software and services that let organizations get the most up-to-date and accurate information from their business systems. With over 275,000 customers—including 98 of the Fortune 100—Oracle supports customers in more than 145 countries.

 

Oracle’s leadership position is due to its impressive record of technical innovation and firsts. Oracle was one of the first companies to make its business applications available via the internet and one of the first to commit to making all of its software work together, thereby minimizing software integration costs and increasing reliability. Oracle has also focused on simplifying IT systems and providing complete solutions, allowing customers to gain access to better information while spending less.

 

Business Essentials

 

Oracle Database 10g, the first relational database designed for grid computing, helps ensure your information is always available and secure. Oracle Database 10g lowers the total cost of ownership through automated management while providing the highest possible quality of service. And with Release 2, Oracle further improves efficiencies and reduces the cost of information management. Oracle is the best choice for large enterprises, small and midsize businesses, and departments alike.

 

Oracle Fusion Middleware consolidates Oracle’s leading, standards-based and customer-proven software—including Oracle Application Server 10g, Oracle Collaboration Suite, Oracle Data Hubs, Developer Tools, Identity Management, Business Integration, and Business Intelligence—delivering the most expansive yet seamlessly integrated infrastructure software offering available. This standards-based family of products provides business value and technology excellence, including complete support for development, deployment, and management of service-oriented architecture.

 

Oracle Applications consist of Oracle E-Business Suite, PeopleSoft Enterprise, JD Edwards EnterpriseOne, and JD Edwards World applications, marking a turning point in the evolution of the software industry. Oracle Applications deliver the information foundation and complete functionality you need to grow your business, enabling information-driven business processes that connect and automate your entire organization.
