You have to leave room for Oracle.

Obligatory: fuck Adobe

Solarwinds; never forget.

I feel like SAP takes the security-through-obscurity approach to not getting shit talked in these chains. As someone who has dealt with oracle, solarwinds, and sap, sap wins full stop.

SAP is evil incarnate. Their "consultants" are the worst form of con artists, and completely incompetent.

I hated working with SAP. It was such a malformed beast.

I used to root against the Golden State Warriors solely because they played at the Oracle Arena.

Fair reason

Say what you will about Oracle; at least VirtualBox is open source.

Broadcom is really really bad, but there's a lot of competition in that space.
