The cloud is coming, Oracle has found a way of licensing the Cloud. Sounds good on paper. The trouble is that there is not the same situation if you ask middle-sized customers, not at least if you ask Swedish customers.
There is some fuzz around pricing policies here in Sweden, and Virtual Computing. "OK, you can upgrade to a 64 bit version, but Oracle want you to pay 120 000 USD in license fees".
"Say what?"
"Yes, it says so here in the list of prices".
"OK, let's see, we have to think about that, what about moving to MySQL what price tag is there in doing that?"
Oracle Corp must have an answer, and an answer soon. Or think again, do it again, do it right.
Ah yes...Oracle Support do listen to us, Oracle customer base. We will have an simple HTML-interface to access Oracle Support. Or My Oracle Support. The more flashy guys will have flash...
