Inspired by this post by Ed Zitron on Bluesky, I wondered if Oracle would file for bankruptcy in the future, whether due to poor decisions, millions in losses in sectors that failed to meet their targets, the loss of lawsuits filed by users and/or customers, or other reasons.

What fate would you like to see for the products offered by this company?

Java is under the umbrella of the Linux Foundation, but realistically it is likely to end up being bought by Google, Microsoft, IBM, Amazon, Meta or Apple.

Oracle Solaris is likely to be absorbed by the Illumos Foundation.

Just as Oracle ZFS is likely to be absorbed by the OpenZFS Project.

Man saying Oracle Solaris just put a bad taste in my mouth. As a once Sun fanboy that loved SPARC i am sad now.

Apple doesn't sell WebObjects anymore, I don't think they use Java internally anymore.

So... nothing of significance.
