What were thousands of people doing there? How much meat does it take to run a patent troll operation?
Oracle was trying to compete with GCP and AWS with OCI. Oracle cloud. This tells me they're going to shutter that.
Oh I fucking hope they do.
Tomorrow I have to do "cloud maintenance" on a Sunday because the fucking OCI decided that some production databases are "unstable" and need to be relocated. The same databases that a while ago could not enable data guards and failed to restore from backups.
Yeah, that's about the level of support I'd expect from Oracle.
