The Oracle Acquisition Machine Swallows ClearApp


Following last week’s surprise announcement of a new chief financial officer, Oracle on Tuesday returned to more typical ways by purchasing software maker ClearApp. 

ClearApp operates in the acronym-rich SOA (Service-Oriented Architecture) segment of the business software market. Its products are designed to gauge the performance of various applications as they interact with each other. In addition, ClearApp’s products can identify potential problems both in the code of a particular application and with how that application affects another piece of software. ClearApp’s software already works with Oracle’s Enterprise Manager product line and IBM’s WebSphere set of middleware.
