I do believe this would be the gateway to another realm of Oracle’s vision in consolidating the best minds at the best place at the best of times. But where is the source coming from .

I agree there is a trend towards remote hosting of services particularly data. This would I think be something like the server farms Google operates but with more potential capacity where data could be either backed up or primarily hosted. They could experiment with several options both in terms of software, hardware and data communications trying to get a product that could be either sold to other potential hosts of such a service or Oracle could enter this field itself. If the first option they could concentrate primarily on a marketable software. Firms like EDS have pioneered this approach and long term there could very well be a growing trend away from in house data management towards centralized virtual databases. Particularly if they have reliable off the shelf software to run these data hosting and management centers with?
