As Gartner analyst Martin Kihn recently predicted, the big enterprise marketing clouds are beginning to pursue divergent product strategies with clear points of distinction.

Oracle 1.0 was more about databases than device graphs. But as Oracle methodically built out a Marketing and Data Cloud, that changed. For the latter, marrying data management platform BlueKai with offline data tool Datalogix unlocked new capabilities. For instance, it can validate metrics that purport to measure links between TV, digital and sales. Oracle […]

Oracle is rallying behind a product called Oracle ID Graph, announced Wednesday at Oracle Modern Marketing Experience in Las Vegas.
