I'm not defending Oracle here--far from it, as their sales and follow-up audits when you ask for support are purely predatory--but a tiny fraction of companies are in a business where "hire developers" is a feasible or reasonable approach to a problem. You might argue that software runs everything, so every company of a size where it's reasonable to even consider something like Oracle is in that business whether they want to be or not, but that's just not how it works.
