  Years ago, they were the go to solution for databases. No CIO would ever be fired for picking Oracle over competitors regardless the pain that would follow, same as having Windows as the OS on all employees computers.

Let’s be professional and use a professional solution!”. Years have passed, the alternative s...

  Let’s just hope pissing off the judge on mïnute 1 may get them uncomfortable about the rest of the trial.
