Beware Oracle DB

In my opinion we are in for some dark days ahead. Redshift is taking toll. CC are migrating at an alarming rate. Office is a dead silence.

Redshift is based on Postgresql. The market for Postgresql is larger than most perceived. I hear more clients talking about Postgresql or hiring PostgreSQL DBA than Oracle. The second most mentioned is SQL Server. Comparing the popularity of Oracle DB to 2 years ago is a huge difference. My advice is skill-up in Postgresql.
