Η Oracle Corporation είναι μια αμερικανική πολυεθνική εταιρεία τεχνολογίας υπολογιστών με έδρα το Ώστιν του Τέξας.[5] Το 2020, η Oracle ήταν η τρίτη μεγαλύτερη εταιρεία λογισμικού στον κόσμο ως προς τα έσοδα και την κεφαλαιοποίηση της αγοράς.[6] Η εταιρεία πουλά λογισμικό και τεχνολογία βάσεων δεδομένων (ιδιαίτερα τα δικά της εμπορικά σήματα), συστήματα σχεδιασμένα στο cloud και προϊόντα εταιρικού λογισμικού, όπως λογισμικό προγραμματισμού πόρων επιχειρήσεων (ERP), λογισμικό διαχείρισης ανθρώπινου κεφαλαίου (HCM), λογισμικό διαχείρισης σχέσεων με πελάτες (CRM) (επίσης γνωστό ως εμπειρία πελάτη), λογισμικό διαχείρισης απόδοσης επιχείρησης (EPM) και λογισμικό διαχείρισης αλυσίδας εφοδιασμού (SCM).[7]
Ο Larry Ellison συνίδρυσε την Oracle Corporation το 1977 με τον Bob Miner και τον Ed Oates με την επωνυμία Software Development Laboratories (SDL).[2] Ο Ellison εμπνεύστηκε[8] από το έγγραφο του 1970 που γράφτηκε από τον Edgar F. Codd σχετικά με τα σχεσιακά συστήματα διαχείρισης βάσεων δεδομένων (RDBMS) με το όνομα "A Relational Model of Data for Large Shared Data Bank."[9] Άκουσε για τη βάση δεδομένων IBM System R από ένα άρθρο στο IBM Research Journal που παρέχεται από τον Oates. Ο Ellison ήθελε να κάνει το προϊόν της Oracle συμβατό με το System R, αλλά απέτυχε να το κάνει καθώς η IBM κράτησε μυστικούς τους κωδικούς σφαλμάτων για το DBMS της. Η SDL άλλαξε το όνομά της σε Relational Software, Inc (RSI) το 1979,[10] και στη συνέχεια σε Oracle Systems Corporation το 1983,[11] για να ευθυγραμμιστεί πιο στενά με το κορυφαίο προϊόν Oracle Database. Το όνομα προήλθε επίσης από την κωδική ονομασία του έργου της CIA του 1977, που ήταν επίσης ο πρώτος πελάτης της Oracle.[12] Σε αυτό το στάδιο ο Bob Miner υπηρέτησε ως ανώτερος προγραμματιστής της εταιρείας. Στις 12 Μαρτίου 1986, η εταιρεία είχε την αρχική της δημόσια προσφορά.[13]
Το 1989, η Oracle μετέφερε την παγκόσμια έδρα της στη γειτονιά Redwood Shores του Redwood City, Καλιφόρνια, αν και η πανεπιστημιούπολη της ολοκληρώθηκε μόλις το 1995.[14]
Το 1995, η Oracle Systems Corporation άλλαξε το όνομά της σε Oracle Corporation,[15] ονομάστηκε επίσημα Oracle, αλλά μερικές φορές αναφέρεται ως Oracle Corporation, το όνομα της εταιρείας χαρτοφυλακίου.[16] Μέρος της πρώιμης επιτυχίας της Oracle Corporation προέκυψε από τη χρήση της γλώσσας προγραμματισμού C για την υλοποίηση των προϊόντων της. Αυτό διευκόλυνε τη μεταφορά σε διαφορετικά λειτουργικά συστήματα, τα περισσότερα από τα οποία υποστηρίζουν C.[17]
Το 2005, η Oracle εξαγόρασε την PeopleSoft, μια εταιρεία ERP, και το 2006 τη Siebel, μια εταιρεία CRM. Το 2008 η Oracle εξαγόρασε την BEA Systems, μια εταιρεία λογισμικού εταιρικής υποδομής και το 2010 εξαγόρασε τη Sun Microsystems, μια εταιρεία υλικού και λογισμικού υπολογιστών (διάσημη για τη γλώσσα προγραμματισμού Java).
Στις 15 Ιουλίου 2013, η Oracle μετέφερε τις μετοχές της από τον Nasdaq στο NYSE. Εκείνη την εποχή, ήταν η μεγαλύτερη μεταφορά στην αγορά των ΗΠΑ.[18]
Σε μια προσπάθεια να ανταγωνιστεί τις Υπηρεσίες Ιστού της Amazon και τα προϊόντα της, η Oracle ανακοίνωσε το 2019 ότι συνεργάζεται με την πρώην ανταγωνιστή της Microsoft. Η συμμαχία κάλεσε ότι το Oracle Cloud και το Microsoft Azure θα συνδεθούν απευθείας, επιτρέποντας στους πελάτες του καθενός να αποθηκεύουν δεδομένα και στις δύο πλατφόρμες υπολογιστικού νέφους και να εκτελούν λογισμικό είτε στο Oracle είτε στο Azure. Κάποιοι είδαν αυτό όχι μόνο ως μια προσπάθεια να ανταγωνιστούν την Amazon, αλλά και την Google και τη Salesforce, που απέκτησαν το Looker και το Tableau Software, αντίστοιχα.[19]
Στις 11 Δεκεμβρίου 2020, η Oracle ανακοίνωσε ότι μετέφερε την παγκόσμια έδρα της από το Redwood Shores στο Ώστιν του Τέξας.[20]
Στις 20 Δεκεμβρίου 2021, η Oracle ανακοίνωσε την εξαγορά της Cerner, μιας εταιρείας τεχνολογίας πληροφοριών υγείας.[21] Την επόμενη μέρα, στις 21 Δεκεμβρίου, η Oracle δημοσιοποίησε την εξαγορά της Federos, μιας εταιρείας τεχνητής νοημοσύνης και εργαλείων αυτοματισμού για απόδοση δικτύου.[22] Η εξαγορά της Cerner ολοκληρώθηκε τον Ιούνιο του 2022 έναντι 28,3 δισεκατομμυρίων δολαρίων σε μετρητά.[23]
Στις 23 Αυγούστου 2022, η Oracle δέχτηκε μια ομαδική αγωγή, η οποία ισχυρίζεται ότι η Oracle λειτουργούσε μια «μηχανή παρακολούθησης» που παρακολουθεί σε πραγματικό χρόνο και καταγράφει επ' αόριστον τα προσωπικά στοιχεία εκατοντάδων εκατομμυρίων ανθρώπων.[24][24][24][24] 25]
Τον Φεβρουάριο του 2023, η εταιρεία ανακοίνωσε ότι επρόκειτο να επενδύσει 1,5 δισεκατομμύρια δολάρια στο Βασίλειο της Σαουδικής Αραβίας ως μέρος της συνεχιζόμενης τεχνολογικής επένδυσης στη χώρα. Ως μέρος της επένδυσης, η Oracle θα ανοίξει ένα κέντρο δεδομένων στην πρωτεύουσα της χώρας, το Ριάντ. [26]

"[Signer hereby asks] competition authorities around the world to block Oracle's acquisition of Sun unless one of the structural solutions selected by [signer] below is put in place as a legally binding requirement: (select at least one; all combinations are possible) MySQL must be divested to a suitable third party that can continue to develop it under the GPL. Oracle must commit to a linking exception for applications that use MySQL with the client libraries (for all programming languages), for plugins and libmysqld. MySQL itself remains licensed under the GPL. Oracle must release all past and future versions of MySQL (until December 2012) under the Apache Software License 2.0 or similar permissive license so that developers of applications and derived versions (forks) have flexibility concerning the code."
