    Reuters[^]:

    Oracle Corp announced on Wednesday it will migrate companies’ most complicated computer programs to its cloud for free as it tries to catch a new wave of potential cloud-computing clients by aiming to save them time and money.

    I thought that word was forbidden in Oracle's offices?

      First one is free. "Reasonable" prices thereafter... once you're hooked. :sigh:

          :) I *knew* someone would go there. ;P (I wish "clients" was a forbidden word at Oracle)

            so they want to move your server to their data center and charge you the power consumption + rental + ...internet consumption...

              Yeah, but it being Oracle, I'd expect them to try to get you to sign up for a support contract for the move, then another once it's on their cloud.
