Oracle Corporation announced the promotion of Clay Magouyrk and Mike Sicilia to the roles of Chief Executive Officers.
Clay Magouyrk, previously President, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), joined Oracle in 2014 from Amazon Web Services. As a founding member of Oracle’s cloud engineering team, Clay has overseen the design, implementation and business success of Gen2 of OCI. Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Gen2 is a high-performance, secure, cost-efficient platform that powers both hyperscale public cloud datacenters and gigawatt-scale AI Training datacenters. Under his leadership, OCI has achieved unprecedented growth and has become the go-to platform for AI training and inference.
Mike Sicilia, formerly President, Oracle Industries, brings deep expertise in vertical applications and applied AI. Joining Oracle through the acquisition of Primavera Systems, Mike’s engineering teams pioneered the use of intent-based application generation to replace traditional coding for building Oracle applications. His teams also added very sophisticated sets of AI Agents to our industry application suites—including healthcare, banking, communications, utilities, hospitality and retail. These new AI cloud applications deliver comprehensive, end-to-end solutions to both regulated and traditional industries.
