DATA ACCESS
Oracle Corporation is a global computer technology company primarily producing cloud engineered systems, enterprise and marketing database software products. It also produces tools for systems of middle-tier software, database development software, enterprise resource planning (ERP) software, supply chain management (SCM) software, and customer relationship management (CRM) software. The company is well known for the enterprise software of its own brands of database management systems. Oracle was once the second-largest software producing company after Microsoft in terms of revenue in 2015. Its headquarters are located in Redwood Shores, California.

DISRUPTION VULNERABILITY
Belonging to the technology sector means this company will be affected directly and indirectly by a number of disruptive opportunities and challenges over the coming decades. While described in detail within Quantumrun’s special reports, these disruptive trends can be summarized along the following broad points:
*First off, Gen-Zs and Millennials are set to dominate the global population by the late-2020s. This tech-literate and tech-supporting demographic will fuel the adoption of an ever greater integration of technology into every aspect of human life.
*The shrinking cost and increasing computational capacity of artificial intelligence (AI) systems will lead to its greater use across a number of applications within the tech sector. All regimented or codified tasks and professions will see greater automation, leading to dramatically reduced operating costs and sizeable layoffs of white and blue-collar employees.
*One highlight from the point above, all tech companies that employ custom software in their operations will increasingly begin adopting AI systems (more so than humans) to write their software. This will eventually result in software that contains fewer errors and vulnerabilities, and a better integration with tomorrow's increasingly powerful hardware.
*Moore’s law will continue to advance the computational capacity and data storage of electronic hardware, while the virtualization of computation (thanks to the rise of the ‘cloud’) will continue to democratize computation applications for the masses.
*The mid-2020s will see significant breakthroughs in quantum computing that will enable game-changing computational abilities applicable to most offerings from technology sector companies.
