The worst DB in existence, not to defend Oracle, is blockchain.

[-] locuester@lemmy.zip 0 points 4 hours ago

Based on what? It’s top notch for immutability, zero trust, proof of existence, accountability, transparency, uptime, decentralization, network resilience…

[-] Pat_Riot@lemmy.today 12 points 19 hours ago

Blockchain isn't a Database, and the worst one is AS400.

[-] Rooster326@programming.dev 5 points 15 hours ago* (last edited 15 hours ago)

A400 is at least relational.

MongoDB on the other hand...

All data is, or will become, relational.

[-] edinbruh@feddit.it 16 points 19 hours ago

mongodb is webscale

I think we all know it actually stands for One Rich Asshole Called Larry Ellison

[-] toynbee@lemmy.world 5 points 22 hours ago

To be honest, until now I always thought it was because of Oracles.

Wind gusts are crazy today the way jokes are flying over heads

Oracle is not the worse DB in existence. They are a worse company than MS, but I'd much rather be talking to Oracle than MSSQL.

(My go-to is PostgreSQL, tho.)

[-] bort@sopuli.xyz 2 points 16 hours ago

MSSQLMS is goat tho

[-] drolex@sopuli.xyz 59 points 1 day ago

Hahaha this is cartoonishly evil, surely it can't be true!

Next you'll tell me Ellison invests in creepy life extension projects and gives an insane amount of money to post-fascist politicians!

[-] technocrit@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 19 hours ago

Don't forget the support for genocide.

[-] hemko@lemmy.dbzer0.com 28 points 1 day ago

Ah, that answers the question "when did oracle become so evil?"

[-] skarn@discuss.tchncs.de 18 points 1 day ago

"Become"?

[-] hemko@lemmy.dbzer0.com 15 points 22 hours ago

Yeah, from the beginning

[-] technocrit@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 19 hours ago

"intelligence" <---> incompetence

Hate to be the Devils advocate here, but Oracle is the only one (as far as i know) which provides a FREE usable server. FOREVER. Via OracleCloud

[-] moonpiedumplings@programming.dev 2 points 9 hours ago

They like to randomly delete them. It happened to me and a friend.

[-] qaz@lemmy.world 8 points 18 hours ago* (last edited 18 hours ago)

Until it randomly gets removed without warning

[-] JasonDJ@lemmy.zip 11 points 20 hours ago* (last edited 20 hours ago)

FOREVER*

[-] xcaliber47@europe.pub 10 points 20 hours ago

As far as i know, yes. Forever. Only 1 cloud provider that gives free usable server FOREVER (until they eventually change their policy or something)

[-] belated_frog_pants@beehaw.org 6 points 19 hours ago

Mmm saas is not forever nor are loss leaders.
