Oracle
Oracle Corporation is a multinational enterprise technology company, headquartered in Austin, Texas, and founded on June 16, 1977. For fiscal year 2025, Oracle reported total revenues of $53.0 billion, with cloud services and license support revenue growing 21% year-over-year to $39.4 billion. On January 22, 2025, the company made its Oracle Database service generally available on Amazon Web Services (AWS) as Oracle Database@AWS, following the December 2023 launch of Oracle Database@Azure. On February 25, 2026, Oracle announced plans to extend this multi-cloud architecture to Google Cloud later in the year with Oracle Database@Google Cloud, a fully managed Exadata service available in four regions across the US, UK, and Germany. Oracle matters now because it is embedding its core database directly into rival hyperscaler infrastructures, while simultaneously scaling its own Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) to train large language models, as evidenced by its June 2025 deployment of a 32,000-node Nvidia H100 GPU cluster. This dual strategy positions Oracle as a neutral, high-performance data layer for enterprise AI workloads, challenging the lock-in models of native cloud providers.
Oracle is sharpening its AI cloud arsenal against Amazon and Super Micro Computer, while partnering with Daybreak on cyber initiatives. The company's recent build of a custom Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for Oracle Cloud Infrastructure—enabling natural language management—signals a direct bid to simplify enterprise AI workloads. Oracle also uses NVIDIA's open-sourced MRC RDMA protocol, the same tech powering OpenAI's clusters, indicating deep infrastructure play. Yet competition is fierce: SynMax and Super Micro are rivals, with Super Micro reportedly losing an Oracle AI server contract. Founded by Larry Ellison, Oracle developed its own CRM and OCI, but must now prove MCP adoption can outpace Amazon's cloud dominance. The open question: Can Oracle's MCP-driven cloud management lure enterprises away from AWS's entrenched ecosystem?
