On October 21, ServiceNow unveiled Arc, an artificial intelligence agent for businesses, which it is launching together with Nvidia. The partnership places Nvidia at the heart of the announcement and gives it prominent visibility in the trade news briefs of the same day. The creator of ChatGPT, for its part, has made a series of recent announcements, including the acquisition of Orchestra Bio.
Among the established software vendors, Oracle is highlighting its AI initiatives and its research and development alliances, while Salesforce is acquiring Braze, a deal that dominates enterprise news. SAP remains ubiquitous in specialized articles, between its SAP Pay offering and the month's ERP topics, while Microsoft returns with its guides on Office 2021 and Microsoft 365. Red Hat is strengthening its partnership with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, and Mistral AI is making its mark in debates on sovereign cloud, notably through the project it is carrying out with Maif on October 22. PC Soft, meanwhile, faces closely watched opposition to its change in business model.
Taken together, the picture is of a sector in which artificial intelligence drives announcements, whether through agents dedicated to businesses or strategic acquisitions. Established software players are defending their positions by relying on alliances, while questions of digital sovereignty and business models are becoming central issues for French decision-makers.
