Oracle has been named the leader in the data warehouse management category by the analyst firm IDC who found that Oracle had nearly 41 percent
(40.9 percent) market share and close to $1.8 billion in revenues for 2006. IDC's report, "Worldwide Data Warehouse Platform Tools 2006 Vendor Shares,"
also notes that Oracle was the leading data warehouse platform tools vendor based on 2006 software. Oracle extended its lead in this market with nearly
33% market share and almost $1.87 billion in software revenue. In addition, Oracle's data warehouse platform tools software revenue grew at 13.1% —
faster than the overall category growth rate of 12.5%.
"The future of the data warehouse market remains strong as companies look to integrate and analyze structured, and increasingly unstructured,
content across the enterprise," said Dan Vesset, Vice President of Business Analytics Research at IDC. "Oracle is well positioned to deliver
the platform tools and new capabilities such as Spatial Information Management that companies need in order to drive better visibility within their
organizations."
