In his keynote address, Oracle CEO Larry Ellison did not spare his swipes at rivals Salesforce.
 The rival set of customer data and risks to the contractor binds his own technique - which is "sticky as a fly trap," it said in a slide presentation. Prior to Ellison's keynote Oracle had "postponed" the announcement speech of Salesforce Chief Marc Benioff. This gave his speech (video) unceremoniously in a hotel near the venue.

With its cloud offering poaches Oracle among others in Salesforce climes: The services include its own "Fusion CRM" (Customer Relationship Management). There are also "Fusion HCM" (Human Capital Management), a social network as well as Java and database offerings.

Stand each customer a dedicated virtual machine instances and databases. Also, according to Ellison, there is a difference with Salesforce technology to share in several instances, users ("multi-tenancy"). Prices for the services of Oracle has not yet been named. There will be subscriptions for one month, thereby leaving themselves acquire each product, regardless of others.
