amazon: Oracle co-founder takes a dig at Amazon over its recent outage – Times of India

Taking a dig at competition isn’t new for Oracle co-founder Larry Ellison. At Oracle’s quarterly earnings conference call on Thursday, Ellison once again took a jab at Amazon Web Services indirectly over the recent outage of AWS, according to a CNBC report.
Those unaware, Amazon Web Services recently went through an outage taking down several websites and services, including the company’s own delivery tools.
Though Ellison didn’t specifically refer to the outage, it was clear enough to relate it directly to the recent AWS outage.
Ellison mentioned that in a note from a telecommunication company saying the main differentiating factor between Oracle and other cloud infrastructure providers is that Oracle cloud never goes down.
Here’s what he said:
“Let me close with a note that I’m going to paraphrase from a very large telecommunications company who uses our cloud and all the other three North American clouds — Google, Amazon and Microsoft. He further added, “And the note basically said the one thing we’ve noticed about Oracle, Oracle’s cloud, is that it never ever goes down. We can’t say that about any of the other clouds. We think this is a critical differentiator.”
As already mentioned, this isn’t the first time Ellison has taken a dig its rivals. According to CNBC’s report, the co-founder told analysts that they handle databases at Oracle in a better way than Amazon at an earnings call in 2016. Then two years later in 2018 he said Amazon will struggle to get off of Oracle’s database. Then he again talked against Amazon cloud security at a conference in the same year.
According to a Synergy Research Group report, Oracle is not even close to Amazon when it comes to market share. Amazon controls 33% of global cloud infrastructure, Microsoft has 20% market share, while Google has 10%. And, there are four other companies that sit in between Google and Oracle.
The same applies to the revenue, CNBC has reported that Amazon has gained a share growth of 1700% over the past decade and Oracle has just managed to triple its revenue.
