Thumb Down

Come on, Gavin - we all know you hate Oracle but this is pure tabloid journalism. The Server Side survey is so flawed (hint - read the comments) it doesn't merit looking at, let alone basing some unsubstantiated opinion-piece on. I guess that now Oracle have come out and said that they are going to promote WLS going forward (no big surprise there), some other FUD angle is needed.

Dammit!

I spent ages getting to grips with OAS, and now it's being phased out...

No forced migrations

Gavin, please do keep in mind that this survey, flawed or not, was conducted before the July 1 strategy Webcast (which could not have offered clearer direction, IMO). Would be interested to see the results of a post-July 1 survey (I'm sure we will).

Three key words, which perhaps you missed: "No forced migrations." What's not to like?

Paris is crying because I just wasted four years on Oracle certs.
