Oracle’s cloud business is still a blip on the radar compared to the competition, but it’s the only cloud provider offering security and automation features uniquely built for the enterprise, Oracle co-founder and CTO Larry Ellison argued Monday.
“Other clouds have been around for a long time, they were not really designed for the enterprise,” Ellison said in his keynote address at the OpenWorld conference in San Francisco.
Oracle is now selling its Generation 2 Cloud, which is available in the public cloud and will be available next year with Cloud@Customer, one of Oracle’s most popular products. The most important part of the Gen 2 Cloud, Ellison said, is the autonomous database.
Taking aim at cloud giant Amazon Web Services, Ellison compared the autonomous database to the reported development of an AWS semi-autonomous database. He likened semi-autonomous databases to a semi-autonomous car.
