Read MoreHide Full Article
Oracle (ORCL - Free Report) is set to boost its research and development (R&D) capabilities in Morocco by expanding its local workforce to 1,000 information technology professionals. This investment aims to accelerate the development of ORCL’s advanced technologies, addressing customer challenges worldwide.
The expansion of Oracle's R&D presence in Morocco aims to leverage the country's deep talent pool to expedite the development of solutions that help global customers.
The expansion will empower young Moroccans to lead in designing and developing innovative solutions covering cutting-edge technologies, such as artificial intelligence (AI), big data, cloud computing and cybersecurity, strengthening Morocco's position as a regional digital hub.
Oracle's initiative follows the establishment of its Morocco Development Center facility at Casanearshore Park in Casablanca. Researchers at this center utilize ORCL's cloud, AI and machine learning technologies to address pressing challenges across various sectors.
Approximately 40% of the new positions will be located outside the regions of greater Casablanca and Rabat-Salé-Kenitra, offering opportunities across the country, including new Oracle offices in Agadir this year and Northern Morocco in the next two years.
ORCL’s AI Capabilities to Aid Cloud Services and License Revenues
The company has been making considerable advancements in AI. Some recent advancements include solutions like Oracle Code Assist, Oracle Database 23ai and NVIDIA (NVDA - Free Report) AI Enterprise on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (“OCI”).
ORCL has unveiled its latest innovation, Oracle Code Assist, an AI-driven code companion to revolutionize the development process. Leveraging large language models hosted on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure and tailored for Java, SQL and OCI application development, Oracle Code Assist promises developers to provide context-specific recommendations customizable to organizational standards and existing codebases.
Oracle Database 23ai marks a significant advancement in the company’s database technology, offering a comprehensive suite of cloud services that integrate AI capabilities seamlessly. With a focus on simplifying AI data utilization, expediting application development and supporting critical workloads, this long-term support release includes more than 300 new features.
The company recently announced the availability of NVIDIA AI Enterprise on OCI Supercluster in the Oracle U.S. Government Cloud region, aiming to address sovereign AI needs. This collaboration between Oracle and NVIDIA facilitates U.S. government clients in training and deploying AI solutions by providing access to OCI's extensive services, including generative AI services powered by high-performance accelerators.
These are expected to aid the company’s cloud services and license revenues in the upcoming quarters.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for ORCL’s fiscal 2024 cloud services and license revenues is pegged at $43.24 billion, indicating year-over-year growth of 22.5%. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for 2024 earnings is pegged at $5.58 per share, indicating year-over-year growth of 8.98%.
Salesforce Sales Cloud helps businesses by automating tasks, finding potential customers and making communication better. It also has special features for governments to provide faster and more personalized services to citizens. CRM recently launched zero copy support for data warehouses and data lakehouses to help customers unlock their data, powering Customer 360 experiences with AI, automation and analytics.
Microsoft Cloud offers tools and solutions to help businesses adapt to changes. MSFT is investing heavily in Southeast Wisconsin to boost AI-powered economic growth, innovation and job opportunities. Additionally, the tech giant is establishing the country's first AI co-innovation lab focused on manufacturing and launching an AI skilling initiative to train more than 100,000 residents in essential AI skills.
Oracle is always coming up with new ideas and investing in AI. This helps the company stay ahead of the competition in the AI cloud market. The partnership with NVIDIA also encourages a healthy competitive environment.
