Oracle isn’t leading the way to anything.
Not truly investing fully in these initiatives means they will always look like the cheap a-- option provided by one of the most despised tech companies in the world.
The Database market is very mature, with lots of non-Oracle options that don’t include audits that resemble a colonoscopy, vendor lock-in, multiple overlapping sales functions, etc.
The executive team is old, out of ideas, devoid of true leadership and solely focused on preserving their capital. A through housecleaning is long overdue there, and maybe inevitable if only to show customers a new face and try to convince the market that Oracle will change.
