We have software in our SaaS fleet that is over 5 years behind on security patches. No one in PDIT cares about security at all. I've actually been laughed at when I said we should be worried about our customer's data.
How on Earth can we help other companies be secure when our own cloud is riddled with unpatched vulnerabilities?
@PGDdREU-1cub: troll. Also, it's "you're" not "your".
MH will lead us to the promise land.
MH lead HP into the toilet. He created a new way of working where everything was outsourced at HP. HP got rid of all of their developers and now they just shuffle parts around from other companies. They are now at the mercy of all their suppliers and in some areas there are very few choices.
HP was destroyed by MH.
Oracle has a lot of talented people, sorry if you did not make the cut.
Keep watching Oracle’s every move, hoping for the downfall. Your gonna be waiting a long time my friend.

You are not looking at reality. Perhaps you are a new hire? Or you just aren't paying attention. All may be well in your small corner of Oracle, but the rest of it is going down the tubes and that will eventually affect your area, too. Oracle will not recover.

Following the well trident and disastrous IBM path - all marketing, no product, just look at Watson - what a disaster. Well, Oracle is just another company that time has passed by, using the same old and tires playbook to keep up its share price. Putting more and more lipstick on the old pig, till there is only lipstick and no pig left. Such a talented management team, NOT!
Where is the talent? The company has about 140,000 employees and look at the garbage they churn out. The only decent stuff is VirtualBox, Solaris,Linux and SPARC systems. That's about 2000 people tops.
Middleware like the HR solutions, Beehive and so on are utter garbage.
I believe in Oracle, we will grow and dominate the industry. We have too much talent for Oracle to tank, MH will lead us to the promise land.
Believing in something won't make it true. It's not going to happen. It's all over at Oracle.

You need to ask yourself why does source code and M&A information have a higher security classification than customer data? IMHO, customer data is the most important and sensitive thing a company can possess.

I was trying for several years to write real software that actually worked. But, the management never seemed to care and I couldn't figure out why. Then, I realized that they really, really didn't care. Everyone else's applications were just demo-ware and I was trying to write a real application that a customer could use. It was just a waste of time. No one in the management cares about the quality of anything and they don't care if the customer can use anything.
It seems like it should all collapse on itself. There can be no future in this. The customers need to wake-the-hell-up and stop paying for sh-- that doesn't work. I don't know how this goes on?
I guess the buying decisions in IT are done by people who have no clue what they are buying?
Several years ago I was in IT for a couple of years and I saw the CFO constantly make poor choices, not just in purchasing software, but in the selection of contractors. There was a meeting at one point to make recommendations to the CFO for what contractor to pick for a particular job. There was one highly qualified contractor and one who obviously didn't have a clue. In the meeting someone said that the unqualified contractor was a friend of the CFO, so we had better pick him.
And that's what they did. I walked out of the meeting.
I don't know. Maybe the customers are CFO's like this one, and they don't care about quality at all, it's just a s----up-fest all the way around. They are just throwing their money away on Oracle products. Why don't they get it?
No, the only thing that matters is your manager's ego, not long term, just for the day. If the customer's data is corrupted, stolen, lost at some point, they will find someone to blame when the time comes. That's all that counts.
Welcome to Oracle, the place where the only thing that matters is making your budget.
