They've recently brought in a bunch of Oracle people to run GCP so, I'm pretty sure anything is on the table at this point.

They are also hiring lots of MS and AWS sales AMs, SAs, and ProServe people

Bringing in people from Oracle as your sales guys. With the great reputation that Oracle has in most organizations what could possibly go wrong?

Worked at a company that signed a contract with Dyn. Oracle asked to try to sell us additional services so we said sure why not.

Oracle flew 23 people across the entire country, all in expensive suits, to sit in a conference room for a full 10 hour pitch meeting where only 2 people talked.

We didn't buy anything.

Rip Dyn. :(
