>This individual case is just the result of terminating Solaris 12 development. Part of the old Sun software, operating system, picked up when Oracle bought Sun. Not a big deal.So so canning the special operating system for your special hardware which is purpose built for your flagship product in 'not a big deal'?This week I told the rep from Netsuite that there is no way we are buying Oracle products, if we can help it, and he seemed actually shocked. How long before Salesforce comes in house and is ruined too? I would spend a lot of labour on Postgres to avoid Oracle again.
