Episode notes
Oracle's Cloud Is The Growth Engine
- Oracle's fastest growth now comes from its relatively new cloud infrastructure business rather than traditional software.
- OCI rents GPUs and data center capacity to AI customers and is driving investor enthusiasm despite weak legacy software performance.
Oracle Commits Massive Capex For AI
- Oracle pledged to spend aggressively on data centers and chips to expand OCI capacity.
- Management guided over $35 billion in capital spending for the next financial year to meet AI demand.
Small Base, Big Percentage Gains
- Oracle's cloud scale remains far smaller than AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud despite rapid growth.
- OCI's smaller base means high percentage growth can produce outsized stock moves compared with larger rivals.
