I think you overestimate the reach of Oracle. They are no where outside fortuine 500 and thats not a lot of deployments.

MySQL is most likely the most deployed thanks to the LAMP stack's proliferation across all sorts of small and medium sites. After that it really would be a toss up between MS-SQL who has traction in the SMB space due to it being used for sharepoint and exchange, and PostgreSQL

but lets be honest the most utilized database is Access.

I do a lot of work with geo-spatial analysis and often work with with various counties and municipalities in my experience everybody has an Oracle database stuffed away somewhere storing the regions canonical geo-spatial data.

Even if each town had an oracle database squirreled away ( which they don't ) That still would not even come close to just the wordpress deployments (60 Million).

Sadly many more people use Excel as their database when they should be using Access.
