Oracle 在拉斯维加斯举行的 AI World 大会上宣布，将在未来四年向其合作伙伴生态系统投入 10 亿美元，涵盖培训、测试与演示环境、云迁移资金以及 Marketplace 销售支持。同时，Oracle 还调整了 Marketplace 规则。这一承诺是在 Oracle 削减成本以资助其 AI 数据中心的背景下作出的。
Oracle announced a $1B, four-year commitment to its partner ecosystem at AI World in Las Vegas, covering training, test and demo environments, cloud migration funding and Marketplace sales. It also changed Marketplace rules. The pledge comes as Oracle cuts costs to fund its AI data centres.
Oracle 周四表示，将在未来四年向构建、销售和部署其软件的公司投入 10 亿美元。该承诺是在其于拉斯维加斯举办的 AI World 大会上作出的，旨在帮助合作伙伴从 AI 需求中获益。
Oracle will spend $1B over the next four years on the companies that build, sell and install its software, the company said on Thursday. It made the pledge at its AI World conference in Las Vegas. The aim is to help partners cash in on demand for AI.
资金将注入 Oracle 的合作伙伴计划，涵盖培训与认证、测试与演示环境搭建、资助客户迁移至 Oracle 云，以及协助通过 Oracle Marketplace（其企业软件在线商店）进行销售。
The money will go into Oracle’s partner programme. It covers training and certification, test and demo setups, funding to move customers onto Oracle’s cloud, and help selling through Oracle Marketplace, its online store for business software.
合作伙伴包括咨询公司、软件开发商、云服务提供商和分销商。他们在 Oracle 的数据库和云平台上构建自己的应用和 AI 智能体，或协助客户部署和运行 Oracle 软件。7 月，Oracle 还将 Google 的 Gemini 模型集成到了其企业应用客户用于构建 AI 智能体的工具中。
Partners include consulting firms, software makers, cloud providers and resellers. They build their own apps and AI agents on Oracle’s databases and cloud, or help customers set up and run Oracle software. In July, Oracle also put Google’s Gemini models into the tool its business-app customers use to build AI agents.
Oracle 全球现场运营总裁 Mark Hura 表示：“我们的合作伙伴拓展了我们的销售触达，扩大了我们的交付能力，并带来了他们自己的创新和投资。”
“Our partners extend our sales reach, expand our delivery capacity, and bring their own innovation and investment,” said Mark Hura, president of Oracle Global Field Operations.
Oracle 还改变了 Marketplace 的运作方式。客户现在可以将更多预付的 Oracle 云积分用于购买合作伙伴产品，软件开发商可直接与买家商定价格。Marketplace 采购功能也正在向印度和日本开放。
Oracle also changed how its Marketplace works. Customers can now put more of their prepaid Oracle cloud credits toward partners’ products, and software makers can agree prices directly with buyers. Marketplace buying is also opening up in India and Japan.
与 Oracle 在 AI 上的投入相比，这项承诺规模较小。Oracle 在上一财年在资本项目上花费约 500 亿美元，并裁减约 2.1 万个岗位，将资金转向云和 AI 数据中心。9 月，它又为尚未实施的裁员额外预留了 7 亿美元。
The pledge is small next to Oracle’s AI spending. The company spent about $50B on capital projects in its last financial year and shed about 21,000 jobs as it moved money into cloud and AI data centres. In September, it set aside $700M more for job cuts it has yet to make.
7 月，标普将 Oracle 的信用评级下调至垃圾级上方一级，理由是其现金消耗过大。
In July, S&P cut Oracle’s credit rating to one notch above junk, citing the cash it is burning.
甲骨文公司未说明这 10 亿美元将如何分配，并表示所有福利均取决于其计划条款和资格规则。
Oracle did not say how the $1B will be split, and said all benefits depend on its programme terms and eligibility rules.
