How amazing would that have been? Zfs might have helped the world move forward a lot faster... Sigh...

Let's give Oracle 10 years from now to fade from relevance as yet another fucked by cloud vendor and Google can then orchestrate a hostile takeover.

To speed that up, just buy Postgresql and use that to smother both Oracle DB and to some extent, mysql. Defence only helps that much, offence can do it a lot faster on their own DB territory.

Better yet, buy EnterpriseDB that's actively targeting Oracle's market. Put a bunch of money into expanding it with conversion tools from Oracle to not Oracle API's it will use.
