Oracle has a huge client base in the gov't and healthcare sectors (at least in the US). Gov't and healthcare also lean heavily on solutions vendors who tend to use Oracle. This is a sector that is easily 10 or 20 years behind the curve in most places, so Oracle offering their me-too product line-up is safe and reassuring.
