NetSuite was founded in 1998 as NetLedger (one of the world's first cloud-based ERP systems) and acquired by Oracle in 2016 for $9.3 billion. Oracle's platform integration — connecting NetSuite to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), Oracle Analytics Cloud, and Oracle's AI layer — enables NetSuite to leverage hyperscale compute, data warehousing, and generative AI capabilities that independent ERP vendors cannot build at equivalent cost. At SuiteWorld 2025, NetSuite unveiled NetSuite Next, featuring Ask Oracle — a natural language AI assistant enabling business users to search records, navigate workflows, analyze financial data, and trigger business actions across the entire NetSuite dataset through conversational queries rather than menu navigation — advancing toward autonomous AI-driven business management. The Oracle leadership transition (co-CEOs Clay Magouyrk and Mike Sicilia replacing Safra Catz) underscores Oracle's commitment to accelerating cloud product innovation across NetSuite, Oracle Cloud ERP (Fusion), and Oracle's SaaS portfolio.
