Oracle Buys Sun

Everyone seems so surprised about Oracle announcing its acquisition of Sun today, but I have to say that I predicted this marriage some 18 months’ ago.  And why?  Well, the favourite home of Oracle’s database is Solaris and Oracle Fusion Middleware is built on Java.  Need I say more?

How will this affect Oracle’s Enterprise 2.0 strategy.  Not a great deal at first glance, but I am excited about the possibilities that OpenOffice (StarOffice) will bring to the portfolio.
