Re: New and investigating

The one part I find that is true about Oracle:

Its a fantastic piece of software that requires almost no intervention 
on my part. I talked to one of our oracle dba's about it. He actually 
(im not kidding here) did not believe it could be a database if it did 
not require maintenance.

I have been associated with Oracle in two companies. It is so complex 
you have to hire a consultant at $150 an hour to do anything unless you 
have an Oracle guru on staff, and he probably costs almost as much.
