As Everyone heared about the new acquisition of oracle, this gonna be a big hit.

I believe oracle itself will be the first one who recieve that hit, and it’ll not recover from it but after a really long time to adapt this acquisition – and the others- as oracle didnt recover yet from it’s previous acquisitions!

I see it’s a better choice than IBM, oracle will provide a better solution for Java and maintain it’s development.
However I don’t see why oracle put itself into the hardware and operating systems area as it’s already had a good deals with HP and Red Hat, but with the new acquisition oracle now targets all company sizes from small ones to Enterprise one, to provide the small ones with mySQL database with GlassFish and for medium to large companies with OracleDB and BEA J2EE Application Server.

Now oracle provide customers with end-to-end solutions providing hardware, operating system, database and Middle tier software.

I dont know however what will they do with netBeans and cloud computing as sun already achieved a good state out there!

Also it’s other open source projects, I hope that oracle knows what it’s doing, or else the java world will collapse over our heads!
