Databases are like cars. You have the vintage cars that everyone looks back on fondly, and now they cost 20 times what they did back in the 1970s. Also, you have the new cars that don’t have the same sex appeal but work much better than cars built 30 years ago; they are faster, get better mileage, and have the latest technology.
Many data sets are being relocated to the cloud, and now those charged with moving the workloads and data must consider their options.
