ATG could push out Oracle's Siebel ecommerce: analyst

摘要

Oracle Corp.'S Decision To Acquire Art Technology Group (Atg) Inc. Will likely mean the newer e-commerce technology will take priority over Oracle's older Siebel e-commerce offering, which will eventually "quietly disappear", according to an analyst.Oracle already has an e-commerce offering, Siebel E-Commerce 8.1.1. Hearn expects the older Siebel technology to eventually take a back seat to the "fresher" ATG before quietly disappearing. "(ATG) will end up at the top of the pile and it will take precedence over anything that is Siebel related," said Randy Hearn, senior research analyst with London, Ont.-based Info-Tech Research Group Ltd.
