Oracle, Sun to launch new product despite merger hurdles

Apparently there is no such thing as a quiet period at Oracle

Oracle's acquisition of Sun Microsystems is being closely scrutinized by European Union regulatory authorities, but that isn't stopping the companies from making their first joint announcement since the deal was announced in April.

The vendors this week are providing details on what they describe as the world's first OLTP (Online Transaction Processing) database machine with Sun FlashFire technology. Oracle CEO Larry Ellison and Sun's John Fowler, executive vice president for Systems, will announce the product during a Webcast on Tuesday, according to an invitation on the vendors' Web sites posted over the weekend.
