Letter from the Director

We encourage you to make the right choice for yourself without being pressured by "deadlines." To help you make that choice, we've produced Projects at Oracle (PDF), written exclusively for you, the Oracle candidate, by exceptional product developers and management across the corporation. Although not all-inclusive, it illustrates the wide spectrum of products and projects under development here at Oracle. This detailed document is the most comprehensive overview of ongoing development projects at Oracle today.

Many of these projects take place right here at HQ, in Redwood Shores, CA, near the ever-popular and exciting city of San Francisco. Important projects also take place in development centers located in choice United States cities—and in exciting locations worldwide. Whether you want to live in Redwood Shores, CA; Denver, Colorado; Valhalla, New York; Nashua, New Hampshire; or Burlington, Massachusetts, Oracle can find a place for you.

Amazon.com. Excite. Yahoo. Google. As we celebrate nearly three decades of information management, these are just a few of the leading companies that rely on Oracle to ensure the success of their e-businesses. With our enduring legacy of high-technology innovations, Oracle is in an unprecedented competitive position and well positioned to continue to play a giant role in the Internet economy. Today, a majority of the Web's most popular sites depend on Oracle's ability to handle huge numbers of users and enormous quantities of information. Why? Early on, Oracle understood the power of the Internet and electronic commerce.

Leading companies worldwide use Oracle software to manage everything--from personal information to giant multimedia libraries that serve up information on demand. Oracle software runs on almost every popular computer and supports not only structured alphanumeric data, but also unstructured text, images, audio, and video. Information moves instantly from those who have it to those who need it. And, Oracle supports all popular operating systems, including Linux, Unix, and NT.

It is an exciting time for the computer industry and those who work in it. Oracle provides everything you need to develop, deploy, run, and manage Internet applications. Our products and services are offered in more than 100 countries. We offer leading-edge applications and technologies for automating and transforming businesses into e-businesses.
