The irony of being this transparent with CIOs about DB migration details is it instantly triggers an opportunity cost discussion.
"This looks like it'll cost $3M-$5M to migrate away from Oracle. But Oracle only increased our licensing costs $500K per year and I already have a team of 5 Oracle DBAs!"
Okay... but those costs compound each year.
Don't get me wrong... I'm all in the "migrate to cloud" camp. But DB migration is one of the most difficult and political conversations to have these days.
