So the $30bn annual revenue (not profit) deal starts sometime after April 2028.
Which sounds like it may be for the new Oracle/SoftBank/OpenAi datacentre that is being opened?

You seem to be either implying the deal doesn't actually exist, or that it is with some entity that won't actually be able to meet the commitment.
The former would be outright fraud.
The latter would be a really bad idea on Oracle's side; being able to actually serve that contract will require a huge amount of capex spenditure, and that spending needs to start pretty much right now. They're not taking the liability of that build-out without having confidence in the customer actually paying in three years.
Oracle Cloud only wins deals by making them zero margin or even unprofitable for them. It’s then only way they can compete against more established competitors with better tech and non-asshole business practices.
