My point was just that some of the larger and older commercial database products include considerations like this straight out of the box (hot backups, clusters/grids, other more exotic features). A lot of features people think they don't need when they start a project (and thus lead to the ingredients they choose for their IT recipes) show up as "damn, now what" features later.
It will always come down to using the right tool for the job. Oracle is great, but overkill for many small projects.
