today, larry ellison became the 2nd richest dude on the planet and i'm sitting on oracle's website like 'what does oracle even do?' for real, ask 10 devs what oracle's main product is and watch 9 of them stutter. but realistically, it doesn't matter that we don't know. oracle's business model: 1) make some database thing 2) sell it to massive corps for ungodly amounts of $$$ 3) lock them into multi-year contracts 4) sit back and watch the billions roll in they're not trying to be the cool kid at the dev party. they're busy being the landlord who owns the whole block. takeaway: you don't need everyone to understand your product. in b2b or b2c. you just need the right customers who can't live without you. find your oracle play.
