The sudden death and eternal life of Solaris
I understand the cost of switching now. Was Postgres never an option? Do the uptime requirements call for RAC etc.?

Our Banner student information system is tied to Oracle. My applications all go against Banner data. Given the licensing cost for Oracle and our current round of cost-cutting, if Postgres was an option, we'd probably take it.

Several years ago at an .edu I had to deal with an upgrade from our current system to Banner. I truly feel for you. :)
