It's not support, it's blame. When the fertilizer hits the circular air moving device someone needs to be the scapegoat. And believe me, the CIO is not going to be the one. There isn't an entity to point to if you run MySQL or PostgreSQL.

Both MySQL and PostgreSQL have commercial entities backing them. Funnily enough, MySQL's is also Oracle.
