Juan Loaiza : “The Future of Databases and IT”

September 26th, 2005 by Mark Rittman

If you followed the debate around Mogens N rgaard’s
"Is Oracle a Legacy
Technology"
article earlier this year, you might be interested in a
presentation that Oracle’s Juan Loaiza gave at Open World last week entitled

"The Future of Databases & IT"
(username and password
here).
Loaiza’s argument is that whilst developers may say that databases and IT are
"good enough", this doesn’t match what business executives are saying and that
Oracle’s Grid technology and e-Business Suite are in fact the solution to
current issues around IT being slow moving, not integrated enough, too expensive
and too unreliable. It’s interesting to see what Oracle’s response is to the
"databases are a commodity technology" argument and you can read the rest of the
presentation
