How the combination you say to be considered better than other combination? What are the suporting reasons to say the particular combination is better than other?
eg.Typical combinations are (1) Oracle front, VB Front. (2) Unix, C, Oracle (3) Oracle with JAVA JDBC (4) SQL Server with VB Front (5) MS SQL Server with Ms Access Front End .......

A major point in your question is missing..."What are you trying to accomplish?"
"What type of hammer is best?". Well if I am driving nails, then a claw hammer. If I am breaking concrete then a sledge hammer. Get the picture?
Same is true here. If you want to store 10 names and addresses then Oracle is a bit much. If you want to store 10 million names then Oracle starts looking good.
Ok, with that over, I will share what I think is a great (maybe not best) "General purpose" database solution. MySQL with SQLYog as development front end, with Apache/PHP pages for developing user interface.
Why? Well MySQL is free and easy to install, so I can use it on small jobs. Creating front ends with dynamic web pages (ie PHP) I create for all operating systems at once. With AJAX techniques I can now deliver very robust applications with interfaces that approach stand alone VB6 apps.
But this would not be selected in extreme circumstances such as supply chain management for a large corporation.

Look, I see the following Combination
Oracle with Java that is if u want an application for 10+ Years of Robustness, Otherwise use Microsoft Products (Like VB.NET or MS-SQL Server)

You could argue that a combination should be based on the strengths of each product involved, depending on the system you intend to build. Most importantly: there is no "right" combination for all situations.
