Larry Ellison does not like multi Tenacy


Enterprise Apps: Larry Ellison Deconstructs Fusion

Here is the brief excerpt from the article:


Ellison also blasted Salesforce.com's approach to cloud computing, which is based on multitenancy. Multitenancy is a principle in software architecture where a single instance of software runs on a server but serves multiple client organizations.
"Multitenancy is a horrible idea," Ellison said. "What it means is, everyone's data is commingled, everyone's customer list is in a single database. That's a horrible security model. In the 21st century, the way we support multiple customers is called 'virtualization.'"

I believe that Larry Ellison certainly does not agree with NIST's definition of Cloud Computing. This is the main reason Oracle is behind in the cloud computing when compared with Google, Salsforce.com, Amazon and even Microsoft.
