Oracle has been a busy company this week during its OpenWorld event in San Franciso. Big Red has pushed out a number of enhancements to its product portfolio and added new features.
Oracle’s main motivation behind the new products is to rival AWS and to make itself a viable competitor in the public cloud market.
CBR keeps you up to date with the biggest developments from the second and third days of the conference.

The IaaS services also included Container Cloud, as the company looks to make it easier to quickly deploy applications in its cloud.
