Oracle finds huge potential in India cloud computing market

Oracle has announced that India is a potential market place for cloud computing. It has seen the increased use of Oracle Cloud space by companies like Helpage India, Siemens, Kotak Bank, Reliance Finance and many more.

The explosive growth in the mobile and social technologies has created a demand for faster and easily accessible business applications. For this Oracle came out with its own app store the Oracle Cloud Marketplace at Oracle OpenWorld 2013. Oracle is the first organization to have created a groundbreaking enterprise app store, the Oracle Cloud Marketplace. It is the corporate equivalent to consumer-oriented app stores such as Google Play and Apple App Store.

According to Niraj Kaushik, VP, Applications, Oracle India, "During our conversations with multiple customers, we realized that enterprises were facing issues in managing applications and the process was getting increasingly complex. In order to get the applications to work effectively, it is critical that enterprises themselves get access to the right applications at the right time. This is at the heart of Oracle's Cloud Marketplace. Oracle Cloud Marketplace is designed and focussed on meeting the needs of Businesses, and Business Users."

Featuring more than 100 business applications developed by Oracle partners, the Oracle Cloud Marketplace enables Oracle Cloud customers to easily browse, evaluate, and buy trusted business applications. It is a one-of-a-kind app store for enterprises.
