There is a strategy in M&A, at least in technology, that is to block the competition or make them look bad. You see it all the time. It is quite possible Oracle, Microsoft or Salesforce will do a product or project or two and throw an offer out there so their competitors can't have it.
None of them like to have to use each others products. I posted that before about Amazon, Oracle, Microsoft and Salesforce in an old FAQ.
Mulesoft is a good example when Salesforce bought them for $6.5B. It means the other big dogs start buying the next in line. Time to make an offer is in the $500K-$5B range. Would be stupid to wait beyond that in my opinion. Many offers don't get accepted.
