Hewlett-Packard Litigation [Member] | Surety Bond [Member]

Derivative Litigation [Member]    
Legal Proceedings [Line Items]    
Derivative litigations and related action   While Oracle continues to evaluate these claims, we do not believe this litigation will have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

Legal Proceedings [Line Items]    
Other litigation   We are party to various other legal proceedings and claims, either asserted or unasserted, which arise in the ordinary course of business, including proceedings and claims that relate to acquisitions we have completed or to companies we have acquired or are attempting to acquire. While the outcome of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, we do not believe that the outcome of any of these matters, individually or in the aggregate, will result in losses that are materially in excess of amounts already recognized, if any.
