This kind of discussion was made for MS SQL Server years ago. (MS SQL
Server will not be used by large businesses) Now, many companies are
using MS SQL Server as back end DB (ERP, etc)
The same thing may happen to PostgreSQL
Open Source DB is very attractive option to ERP and other venders, since
they can cut down installation cost with open source db.
It is a matter of time, isn't it?
