> Ellison showed off a new Oracle Dense Cloud IO bare metal cloud server offering that will provide developers with 36 CPU cores, 512GB of D-RAM, and 28.8TB of SSD storage.
AWS isn't merely about the compute. EC2 is just part of a larger ecosystem of infrastructure services that has been built out by amazon over the past 10 years. If Oracle thinks they can beat that, then more power to them but I'm not quite convinced.
I'm happy that there's more competition but Oracle's offering seems more like empty words rather than concrete competition.
Maybe they'll now stop pouring resources into the Google lawsuit and actually pursue building new useful products.
