  • Oracle Takes on IBM and HP with Hardware, Software and Services Triple Play by Arif Mohamed
    CW+ a whitepaper from ComputerWeekly Oracle takes on IBM and HP with hardware, software and services triple play by Arif Mohamed This has been a landmark year for Oracle, the technology company headed by the charismatic and staggeringly wealthy Larry Ellison. Ellison, who is 65, has been chief executive officer since he founded Oracle in June 1977. He was listed the sixth richest person in the world in 2010. And his personal wealth of $27bn is a clear indication of Oracle’s success as an IT supplier. Oracle began the year by completing its $7.4bn acquisition of Sun Microsystems. The deal transformed Oracle from a software and consulting company, into a company able to compete on software, hardware and services. The deal gave Oracle Sun’s MySQL database, Sparc/Solaris servers, plus Sun’s storage hardware and flagship Java portfolio of tools and technologies. 2010 also marked the conclusion of an aggressive spending spree that has seen Oracle buying over 66 technology companies since 2002. These include CRM suppliers Siebel and PeopleSoft, middleware giant BEA Systems and storage specialist StorageTek. Six years on, Oracle has announced the fruits of its integration work, which began in 2004 when it bought PeopleSoft, which owned JD Edwards. Although Oracle has integrated the suites of applications from each subsequent merger to some degree, but it has now revealed a suite of software, Fusion Applications, which promises to unite them all for the first time through a common middleware layer, and run on optimised hardware from the Sun acquisition. Its Fusion Applications range of enterprise products, due out in January, will also give an upgrade path to enterprise users of Oracle’s legacy CRM and other business packages including PeopleSoft, Siebel and JD Edwards.

This year’s conference hosted more than 60,000 Oracle customers and partners from 175 countries. Not only that, the livestream of the keynote sessions was viewed by 19 million virtual attendees. It’s not OpenWorld without Oracle co-founder, Executive Chairman and Chief Technology Officer Larry Ellison leading the charge. With Ellison, whom Forbes magazine lists as the 10th wealthiest person in the world, still calling the shots, no one can deny that Oracle remains a fighter. Oracle rarely competes in any segment without a top-down commitment to win the predominant market share, nail down all the banner enterprise accounts and vanquish all rivals. At this year’s OpenWorld at the Moscone Center in San Francisco, Ellison left no doubt that Oracle is not sitting still in the public cloud arena.

  • In Search of Stupidity: Over 20 Years of High-Tech Marketing Disasters
    CYAN YELLOW MAGENTA BLACK PANTONE 123 CV Chapman “A funny AND grim read that explains why so many of the high-tech sales departments I’ve trained and written about over the years frequently have Merrill R.Chapman homicidal impulses towards their marketing groups. A must read.” Foreword by Eric Sink —Mike Bosworth Author of Solution Selling, Creating Buyers in Difficult Selling Markets and coauthor of Customer Centric Selling In Search of Stupidity In Search OVER 20 YEARS OF HIGH-TECH MARKETING DISASTERS 20 YEARS OF HIGH-TECH OVER n 1982 Tom Peters and Robert Waterman Ikicked off the modern business book era with In Search of Excellence: Lessons from America’s Best-Run Companies. Unfortunately, as time went by it became painfully obvious that many of the companies Peters and Waterman had profiled, particularly the high-tech ones, were something less than excellent. Firms such as Atari, DEC, IBM, Lanier, Wang, Xerox and others either crashed and burned or underwent painful and wrenching traumas you would have expected excellent companies to avoid. What went wrong? Merrill R. (Rick) Chapman believes he has the answer (and the proof is in these pages). He’s observed that high-tech companies periodically meltdown because they fail to learn from the lessons of the past and thus continue to make the same completely avoidable mistakes again and again and again. To help teach you this, In Search of Stupidity takes you on a fascinating journey from yesterday to today as it salvages some of high-tech’s most famous car wrecks. You will be there as MicroPro, once the industry’s largest desktop software company, destroys itself by committing a fundamental positioning mistake.

    Dissertation Essays on Software Market: Security, Liability, and Pricing By Byung Cho Kim Committee Chair: Professor Tridas Mukhopadhyay Professor Pei-yu Chen Professor Chris Forman Reader Professor Rahul Telang Tepper School of Business Carnegie Mellon University August 2007 Dedication This dissertation is dedicated to my parents, Sang Wook Kim and Chang Hee Kim, for their unconditional sacrifice, endless support, and love. Acknowledgements Pursuing my doctoral degree at Carnegie Mellon has been a challenging yet rewarding experience of my life. All I had was luck, the best of which was in the form of my advisor, Professor Tridas Mukhopadhyay who is not only my academic advisor, but also my mentor. He has helped me go through all the difficulties I came across for the past five years at Carnegie Mellon. I would like to sincerely thank him for his continuous guidance and support throughout my doctoral program. He has spent countless hours discussing my research, sharing his insights and experiences with me, guiding me through tough times, and sharpening my learning skills. Without his support, patience, and confidence in me, this dissertation would not be possible. I feel honored to have had a chance to work with him and learn from him. I am grateful for the contributions of Professor Pei-yu Chen who has always encouraged me with belief in me since my first day at Carnegie Mellon. She has helped me develop analytical skills as well as research ideas. I have benefited from every single interaction with her. She has dedicated her time and effort to help me become a critical thinker.
