Are SAP and Oracle making a mess in the cloud?

SAP and Oracle need to get the transition to the cloud right or risk losing their positions in the software market to nimble cloud pure-plays. The two giants are putting money behind the cloud – investing via in-house developments and through acquisitions – but despite their efforts they are still at the early stages of the transition process. They have expanding portfolios but need to do the hard work of making their respective matrices of acquisitions integrate with each other and with their on-premise offerings (especially at the data and process levels). This process has barely begun in our opinion but will be a key success metric.  Subscribers to TechMarketView ESASViews can see our view on their progress in How are SAP and Oracle handling the cloud transition?, here.
