Surprise! It wasn't Oracle :)

  MongoDB?

    Throwing out names doesn't help. Bootwizard shouldn't have even said it wasn't Oracle.

      Technically true, but if they didn’t say it want Oracle then everyone would assume it was. I have never worked with a company that bought Oracle products, but I still have a bad experience from their presale calls.

  I've got to admit, that was indeed a surprise. I really hope other DB vendors don't follow Oracle's example into toxic vendorship.

  By saying it wasn't a company could imply it was another company that someone else asked about that you didn't respond to. If you say you're not going to answer in a positive, then you also shouldn't answer in the negative.

    Luckily there are a lot of database vendors - it's a crowded marketplace. So replying once in the negative reveals negligable information and probably does not risk identifying the vendor at all.
