Optimal Cloud Computing: The Secret Is not to Mix and Match
Oracle Delivers the Complete Package from a Single Source

Relying on multiple vendors for a corporation's numerous uses of cloud computing robs that entity of the efficiencies available from a single vendor, Oracle, for example, who can provide the end-to-end infrastructure required to meet all the needs of a business and deliver ample cost savings and efficiencies into the bargain. This is the argument advanced in the recent Oracle Executive Strategy Brief: Enterprise-Grade Cloud Applications. The brief cites a Symantec survey that found only 47% of corporations enjoying the greater IT agility promised by their several vendors. The secret to optimal use of the cloud, Oracle contends, is to implement an infrastructure from a single vendor that is designed to meet every need. Oracle's complete solutions, the brief maintains, deliver a comprehensive package ranging from the richest functionality to integrated reporting and great user experience. There is no need to waste effort on establishing harmony among contending solutions from multiple vendors.
