          except their cloud which is cheap

          I know, I know, it’s a feature capitalism and whatnot, but willingly doing business with oracle is baffling to me, let alone actually depending on them.

    Correction: you need to purchase a 80k USD DNA Center in order to buy a license for that question. The base price for that license is 2k USD, but if you actually want to use the features you’re buying it for, then the license is an extra 5k and it has a lead time of 17 months.
