The Best Things in Life are Free - part 2

A common theme in my 30 years of using Oracle technology is that people love to label any and all things Oracle as "cool tech but way too expensive". But this argument is a reflection of a very dated view of Oracle, because times have changed. Nowadays there is a plethora of tools, platforms and initiatives provided by Oracle that are 100% free to take advantage of. In the same way that I don't run ads on this podcast :-) here is part 2 of my exploration of all of the cool Oracle stuff you can exploit without paying a cent.
