Larry Ellison is betting his future on the Internet, and at the
OracleWorld show in San Francisco this afternoon the Oracle Corp.
chairman and CEO told a packed hall of conference attendees why
they should do the same.
In the future, Ellison continued, professionals such as doctors
and dentists will acquire “application services” from providers who
meet their customer billing, patient scheduling and other computing
needs. “If you’re a dentist, why would you ever have an entire
accounting system hosted on a server in your office?” Ellison
asked.
