Here is a collection of #CubeCards from my exclusive sit down with Oracle CEO Mark Hurd.
#CubeCards – Pictures can tell a thousand words.
- We [now] can fully encrypt the database and get incredible performance
- “All our products have basically been [cloudified]. They’ve been rewritten from the ground up to be cloud-ready.”
- “The ability now to integrate structured data and unstructured data, and do it in near real-time so that you can make a decision on something based on early indicators and then merge and integrate it with the core way that you run a company – that’s how you’ll see analytics evolve.”
- “Same employees that work differently? They buy differently. And you better be prepared to engage them where they want to be engaged and how they want to be engaged.”
- [On cloud] “This just costs less. This is simply driving more innovation. And it’s easier at the end of the day. Those are three fantastic benefits for customers.”
- “So these are tremendous opportunities to change the way we think of IT […] timing has to be right, there has to be an openness and an excitement about embracing these opportunities, and I think that time is now.”
- “At Oracle, we feel uniquely posititioned in that we’re not just big in the cloud, but we have a heritage on premise. And I see that as a very, very strong asset in the ability now to bring those two worlds together.”
- “Nobody’s provided solutions at the depth of breadth that Oracle has over the past 20-some years. So we’ve got a lot of experience in the business. And that experience really is at the enterprise level.”
- “Yest [the cloud] is lower cost. its better economy. Yes it is simpler – but it also drives more innovation.”
- “We will book more business in the cloud this year than anyone else in the country.”
