Oracle said Thursday that its customer growth in Asia Pacific and Japan has seen a strong momentum during the second quarter.
“Customers are selecting Oracle as they recognize the advantages of working with a single business IT partner that can meet all their needs,” said Derek Williams, Chairman and Executive Vice President, Oracle Asia Pacific & Japan.
“Oracle delivers the industry’s most complete business software portfolio and architecture – comprising database, middleware, horizontal and industry-specific applications, and enterprise performance management / business intelligence – built on open standards. This, combined with industry-specific expertise, world-class support and education capabilities, as well as our long-standing commitment to innovation, clearly extends Oracle’s position as a leader for business software.”
