In the future? A better question if one temporarily ignores the fact that you are comparing hardware with software, is how many years ago did Oracle achieve the ability to replace mainframe databases?

The answer is more than a decade. At Boeing, more than a decade ago, I was using Oracle 7.3.4 to replace mainframe database systems.
