Hahaha this is cartoonishly evil, surely it can’t be true!
Next you’ll tell me Ellison invests in creepy life extension projects and gives an insane amount of money to post-fascist politicians!
Don’t forget the support for genocide.
I think we all know it actually stands for One Rich Asshole Called Larry Ellison
Ah, that answers the question “when did oracle become so evil?”
“Become”?
Yeah, from the beginning
The worst DB in existence, not to defend Oracle, is blockchain.
Blockchain isn’t a Database, and the worst one is AS400.
A400 is at least relational.
MongoDB on the other hand…
All data is, or will become, relational.
Based on what? It’s top notch for immutability, zero trust, proof of existence, accountability, transparency, uptime, decentralization, network resilience…
Oracle is not the worse DB in existence. They are a worse company than MS, but I’d much rather be talking to Oracle than MSSQL.
(My go-to is PostgreSQL, tho.)
MSSQLMS is goat tho

I am forced to use Oracle at work. It is, in fact, hot garbage.
“intelligence” <—> incompetence
I dunno about that. The CIA has at least been competent at undermining leftist movements.
Hate to be the Devils advocate here, but Oracle is the only one (as far as i know) which provides a FREE usable server. FOREVER. Via OracleCloud
FOREVER*
As far as i know, yes. Forever. Only 1 cloud provider that gives free usable server FOREVER (until they eventually change their policy or something)
Mmm saas is not forever nor are loss leaders.
They like to randomly delete them. It happened to me and a friend.
You can start the server again manually right? Because i am about to go for Oracle free forever server ( It is a Analytics server so i dont mind them deleting the entire server sometimes. And me manually starting it back up as soon as they do that. Also we have auto backup I just want a free server
Will it work?
Unfortunately deleted means deleted. Data gone.
My recommendation is to use it as a reverse proxy to expose services but ultimately host from another device.
It’s 1 gb of ram anyway (the free 24 gb of ram arm vps’ are scarce and hard to get).
Another tip is that they monitor cpu and ram and are more likely to delete it if is idling. There exist programs on github that do nothing but waste cpu in order to try to keep the oracle vps up.
The name Oracle comes from the codename of a Central Intelligence Agency-funded project Ellison had worked on while formally employed by Ampex.
Nonsense, everyone knows Oracle is an acronym: One Rich Asshole Called Larry Ellison.
The DoD funded a lot of the early development of relational databases, along with internet protocol. Working for the cia was probably the least of ellisons sins. Really bad company, but solid DB.
I think MSSQL is worse than MySQL (or at least MariaDB)
