ORACLE LAYS OUT NETSUITE PLANS Featured

Jim McGeever, OraclePartners received a great deal of attention this week as Oracle laid out its plans to integrate the recently acquired NetSuite. "We will have a lot more partners to work with this around the globe," says Jim McGeever, who will be running NetSuite, reporting to Oracle CEO Marc Hurd. "We will have people on the ground to help with roll outs." It's no surprise that NetSuite CEO Zach Nelson will not be in day-to-day operations. Hurd said in a webcast that Nelson will be a company evangelist, but provided few details. There was also an emphasis on upgrading channel skills. Many calls coming into support are partner implementations, executives said. There will probably be certifications for specific staff within partner organizations on specific skills. The presenters, including NetSuite founder Evan Goldberg, placed heavy emphasis on the interaction between the software from the two companies. Steve Miranda, Oracle's SVP of applications development, said NetSuite customers will have access to all data collection and machine learning. He said via Platform and a Service and Infrastructure as a Service, NetSuite customers receive access to all Java-built and Oracle-built applications and Oracle will be able to easily extend its EPM functionality into NetSuite. The company will also be able to share designs across NetSuite and traditional Oracle applications.
