Oracle Ordered To Pay HP $3 Billion In Itanium Case
A California jury ordered Oracle Corp to pay Hewlett-Packard Enterprise Co $3 billion in damages in a case over HP's Itanium servers, an Oracle spokeswoman said on Thursday.
Oracle said it would appeal the verdict.
The Itanium processor is made by Intel Inc.
Oracle decided to stop developing software for use with HP's Itanium-based servers in 2011, saying that Intel made it clear that the chip was nearing the end of its life and was shifting its focus to its x86 microprocessor.
