Work with Oracle for decades but haven’t even heard their name mentioned in ages when considering new architecture. Other than fading Java did not know they still sold dbs figuring they lived off of dwindling support and maintenance of legacy systems. Of course with gov business that can be. Lucrative until its not.

Agreed. I think Ellison should have sold when his company was worth something. Before the clouds rolled in.

They sell lots of different software. Oracle’s ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) software handles accounting, payroll, inventory, etc for a lot of Fortune 500 companies.

Oracle just reported $2.8 billion in profits on $11.4 billion in earnings for the last quarter. That seems like a lot.
