Oracle-Retek Integration Begins

The first integration involved Oracle Portal providing a single sign-on and common user interface for Retek systems. Retek's retail software includes merchandise management, supply chain execution, store and multi-channel retailing and customer-relationship management.

"Our teams are committed to making rapid progress in integrating the Oracle-Retek solutions," Charles Phillips, president of Oracle, said in a statement.

Oracle, based in Redwood City, Calif., and Retek demonstrated the companies' combined software at the recent Retail Systems 2005 Conference and Exposition in Chicago.
