Interesting. Cirrently relevant with the cloud wars and a lot of start ups able to switch. I just never see this in the running like oracle, salesforce, SAP etc...

Hesitant. You can mock me when it takes off... We are on Oracle 12c, and switching is nearly impossible because we have over 12,000 modifications [in our middleware] based on sqlplus and oracle exclusive dependencies on a HOME and BASE structure. Got us by the balls. I expect a lot of old companes also fell in this trap.

Oh yes. I know the Oracle game very well. Been competing with them for 30 years!

My brother in law worked there for a while. Has his own business now. I've forgiven him ;)

Dockers or Kubernetes will make it easier for new technology in the cloud.

It's set to begin trading today. Let's see what it soars up to today.  160 a share wouldn't be a shocker. Might be higher based on the overall markets and fed response later. If this thing rages high, I can see it pulling the whole tech sector up with it.  The sheer excitement when AAPL hit $2T valuation drove the markets nuts. No options pricing.
