A lot of companies have been making it a goal to move away from Oracle as a whole. The Java enterprise licensing thing from a few years back rubbed every company in the world the wrong way, their rep is permanently trashed.
I cannot speak for smaller firms because we only deal with enterprise level projects. What we have seen and continue to see is that if the demands of the project are light enough to run on the cloud, then the company will do that (Azure is kicking everyone's ass in sales BTW). Anyone else, which is the majority or pur clients (and they don't like hearing it) are stuck with Oracle. Sure, you can off-load a lot of functionality to other things, but for RDBMS you are stuck with the big red ⭕.
Postgres.
Postgres can't handle what I am talking about. The more likely replacement for Oracle on Linux for this types of projects is Exadata.
EDIT: Your downvote doesn't change facts. This is not corporate shilling. I freaking hate Oracle, but facts are facts.
