I would not be that definite. There are some companies which are using
MediaWiki and they may also will use WikiBase. They also might have
professional Database-Support. Looking at this it could also make sense to
support MSSQL or Oracle (in this case it's pitty that Apple doesn't have an own
AFAIK).
