Blackout Saturday: Oracle website DIES after mammoth US shopping binge

Secure remote control for conventional and virtual desktops

Oracle's website tumbled from the interwebs in the last hour but the cause of the outage remains unclear.

The tech giant was yet to respond to The Register's request for comment at time of writing.

A static message on the Redwood City, California-based company's site reads:

This site is experiencing technical difficulty. We are aware of the issue and are working as quick as possible to correct the issue.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.

Oracle advised customers to contact the vendor by telephone while it sorts out the mess.

Would @Oracle like to explain to the class what's wrong with http://t.co/Uce933xvjJ at the moment?

However, the company was yet to explain why its website had collapsed. We'll update this story if Oracle does get in touch. ®
