Oracle and Metron Strategic Alliance Accelerates Defense Decision Superiority Austin, Texas, June 17, 2025 /PRNewswire/ – Oracle today announced a strategic alliance with Metron, a leading provider of scientific, research, and technology innovations, to collaborate on scalable decision support solutions for multi-domain operations. Oracle and Metron solutions enable defense organizations to outpace their adversaries in the OODA (observe, orient, decide, and act) loop by providing them with the tools to make swift, informed decisions based on data insights. This alliance leverages the power of cloud computing and artificial intelligence to fundamentally transform how defense organizations operate, enhancing their ability to anticipate threats and respond effectively. The core of this partnership focuses on delivering solutions that directly address the critical need for decision superiority – the ability to gain a strategic advantage through superior decision-making. By combining Metron’s decades of experience in developing advanced decision-aid technologies with Oracle’s robust cloud infrastructure, the partnership creates a powerful synergy. Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), available across all U.S. security fabrics, offers a scalable, high performance and cost-effective way for Metron’s decision support technology to help defense organizations bolster their data security and resilience across battlefield networks. The integration of OCI ensures that defense organizations can seamlessly access and analyze vast amounts of data, enabling real-time insights and faster, more accurate decisions. This capability is particularly vital in complex, dynamic operational environments where rapid response is paramount. The alliance represents a significant step forward in modernizing defense capabilities and equipping warfighters with the tools they need to succeed.

Shared Commitment to National Security Oracle is committed to helping defense organizations gain insights from their data so they can detect and deter threats. Metron shares this commitment and will join the Oracle Defense Ecosystem to help warfighters and mission owners make decisions with the latest cloud and AI powered technologies. Metron is focused on solving the most challenging problems facing national security and brings over 40-years of innovation and field-ready applications. For example, it pioneered advanced decision-aid technologies for system-of-systems composition and mission planning for the U.S. Department of Defense and the Department of Homeland Security. "We are proud to partner with Oracle to address the evolving needs of the global defense ecosystem," said Van Gurley, president and CEO, Metron. "Our innovative decision superiority solutions, coupled with Oracle’s advanced cloud and AI technologies, can enable us to deliver scalable, transformative solutions that enhance situational awareness, provide decision advantage, and increase mission effectiveness for our customers." "With Metron and Oracle’s Cloud Infrastructure our customers will be able to identify targets sooner, decide faster, and hit harder to deter or win the next conflict," said Rand Waldron, vice president, Oracle. "We are excited to help our customers protect national interests and save taxpayer dollars in doing so."

The collaboration underscores a commitment to innovation and technological advancement within the defense sector. Ultimately, this strategic alliance aims to strengthen national security by providing defense organizations with the intelligence and capabilities necessary to maintain a strategic edge.
