Oracle launches Oracle Hospitality
Building on the strong foundation MICROS established to serve the hotel and food and beverage industries, Oracle has launched Oracle Hospitality Global Business Unit to accelerate development of innovative cloud, mobile and guest experience technology. With hundreds of thousands of systems already deployed in hotels, restaurants, cruise operations and other venues on all seven continents, Oracle Hospitality extends MICROS’ commitment to providing fast, reliable service and solutions to customers both large and small.

“The launch of Oracle Hospitality builds on Oracle’s industries strategy of creating dedicated global business units that help our customers solve their most important business challenges, with a combination of best-of-breed technology and extensive industry-specific expertise and experience,” says Bob Weiler, executive vice president, global business units, Oracle. “Oracle Hospitality delivers solutions that allow our hospitality customers to compete more effectively in a business landscape that has been wholly reshaped by disruptive technologies.”
Oracle’s platform for the hospitality industry offers comprehensive and integrated software, modern cloud offerings and hardware solutions for hotels, casinos, table and quick-service restaurants, sports and entertainment venues as well as cruise operations from small independents to large global chains.
“By combining these two great brands we’re creating a portfolio that has never before been seen in the hospitality industry,” adds Mike Webster, senior vice president and general manager, Oracle Retail and Hospitality. “We have assembled a strong team of industry veterans that wake up every day and focus on one thing and one thing only – how do we help our hospitality customers succeed in providing their guests a great experience.”
