There is MongoDB Labs FWIW (also Oracle Labs but I think that's just rebranded Sun Labs and not sure how much DB research happens there).

One example of what they do there is GraalVM, which started as MaximeVM at Sun Labs, although they don't share code per se only the research.

Or how Solaris eventually became the first UNIX with hardware memory tagging.

I see a lot of concurrency papers from Oracle Labs but not DB papers FWIW.

Secret sauce.

Contrary to most beliefs, there are still features on Oracle, SQL Server, DB 2, and similar, not yet available on Postgres.

Not having DB papers is certainly one way for Oracle to keep it that way.
