Many people still think that Oracle is a non-player in middleware business and this report will be an eye-opener where Oracle breaks out its middleware revenue. Oracle's middleware (application server) business was $853 million in last fiscal year (FY2005 ending May 2005) and targets to generate $1 billion in revenue in FY2006. Just for comparison purpose, BEA's annual revenue has been slightly over $1 billion for past few years.
It's time to realize that Oracle is a force to reckon with in this area and has been gaining ground on competition.
