It reminds me of the old saying.
> Nobody ever got fired for buying IBM
Nobody ever got fired for buying, Oracle or Microsoft or any big incumbent. The same could definitely not be said for choosing any free software.
Ironically RHEL is IBM now.
- dijit 3y agoI can imagine people being fired for going with Oracle. Fail to make your budget work 5 quarters in a row and see how long you last. ;) Or wait for a legal case to come up: someones getting fired, wether its you or a scapegoat you sacrifice.
- berniedurfee 3y agoNo really, nobody ever gets fired for going with Oracle or any of the big blue chip dumpster fires. Any org with deep enough pockets to afford Oracle at scale has a deep enough org structure and bureaucracy that those huge wasteful projects produce nothing but promotions.
