A comment on Ask HN: Who is still using Oracle?.
Oracle was very clever offering free development licenses to software developers years ago.
This made them the db of choice for people buying a premade solution.
Nowadays it is different because we have a lot of open source DBs available to test for free; but long running monolythical apps won't change easily.
