DEC DBMS was sold to Oracle along with Rdb.  They still support it,
proving that it _is_ possible to market something less than Rdb :-)
If you have trouble convincing Oracle representatives that it exists,
first find an Oracle representative who believes that Rdb exists.
The Codasyl database (I don't know Oracle's name for it) is used
in semiconductor fabrication plans at various companies (as well
as elsewhere).

ACMS is still sold by Compaq, so far as I know.
