a: Oracle database ~
b: jet engine
What:
"I think an Oracle database is like a jet engine. It's a very important piece of technology, but I don't need to buy one personally. Every time you go to eBay, you access an Oracle database. Every time you go to Amazon.com, you access an Oracle database. Every time you make a bank deposit, you access an Oracle database. But actually selling it to consumers?"
Useful?
