Oracle Cloud Services
Keynote from Larry was all cloud, cloud, cloud! More SaaS than anyone else
◦ announced dozens of services in the last year ◦ probably hundreds across all the sectors
Platform upgrade ◦ data as a service (BlueKai acquisition) ◦ some of these offerings included capabilities that sounded like enterprise Dropbox
Data migration of data or app on-premise to/from cloud push of a button Innovation for securing the cloud at lowest levels B2C and B2B capabilities
Cloud (Middleware)
Integration Cloud Service ◦ Web UI for integration (OSB underneath) ◦ Ethos change: no deployment - develop and promote to
production ◦ Automated mappings (can be overridden) when going
between own cloud services or Oracle adaptors to 3rd party ◦ Can build own mappings & incorporate own functionality ◦ One-way migration to on-premise OSB
Cloud (Middleware)
Process Cloud Service
SOA Suite as a hosted solution

MAF actually incorporates Apache Cordova ◦ (open source version of PhoneGap)
