Oracle to acquire BEA Systems

With Oracle acquisition of BEA Systems, there’s a major change in SOA solution provider political map. What once are competitors in SOA solution provider landscape now joint under one umbrella, the mighty Oracle. BEA’s strong hold on Telco industry will strengthen Oracle’s grip over that sector.

What will happen to BEA AquaLogic product line after the acquisition? As Larry Ellison puts it, BEA and Oracle solutions will co-exist and integrated, instead of merged. Will Oracle be competing with itself when marketing either e.g. Oracle BPEL PM vs. BEA AquaLogic BPM?
