Larry Ellison has dismissed his two historic competitors, IBM and SAP as "nowhere in the cloud," and used Sunday night's OpenWorld keynote to show off products and services designed to bury Big Blue and the HANA heroes.
"We compete with Amazon in cloud infrastructure and never, ever see IBM - this is how much our world has changed," Oracle's chief technology officer and chairman said at the start of the Oracle OpenWorld conference in San Francisco.
"Our two biggest competitors in last two decades have been IBM and SAP and we no longer pay any attention to either one; it's quite a shock. SAP nowhere in cloud, and only Oracle and Microsoft is in every level of the cloud - applications, platform, and infrastructure."
To ruin IBM's day, Oracle and Intel announced a partnership called "Exa your power" that offers a chance for those running IBM Power Systems to conduct a free proof of concept study on migrating to Oracle's cloud. Oracle co-CEO Mark Hurd promised that Big Blue buyers would see lower costs and higher performance.
Intel also used the keynote to show off new hardware that will make it easier for Oracle to seduce SAP's in-memory customers – its latest 3D Xpoint DIMMS. Intel's CEO Brian Krzanich came on stage to show off the new hardware, due out next year, which he claimed was a thousand times faster than NAND, and 10 times as durable.
Krzanich claimed the new hardware will enable 6TB in-memory databases and well and truly set heads spinning as you try to figure out just where data, memory, and storage begin and end.
