Oracle OpenWorld 2011 - Get The Latest News and Updates

6th October, 17:02pm

Oracle Chief Executive, Larry Ellison highlighted the importance of its hardware business in his keynote address at OpenWorld 2011 on 2 October. At the time of its purchase in 2009 many thought Oracle were only interested in acquiring Sun's customer base but their development and investment in the hardware since seems to fly in the face of that notion.

In the address Larry Ellison said “We want to take I.B.M. on in their strongest suit, microprocessors,” he said at Sunday’s opening of his OracleWorld trade show. The benchmark would be pure processing speed, he said, claiming that his new SPARC t4 chips are already faster than I.B.M. in running Java software. “We passed them in Java,” he said, “we’re going to pass them in every other area too.”

“The idea of engineering the hardware and the software (together) should give us better performance, better ease of use, and lower cost,” Mr. Ellison said, adding that the ultimate goal “is higher performance than I.B.M.’s fastest computer.” He took time to thank the Sun engineers for their work on chips, and indicated that he would be investing heavily to keep a competitive edge.
