Making Oracle simpler to work with I don't fear would put dba's out of work.
A dba's role is far more involved than just the daily janitor work.
Planning is also a large part of our job as well.
But let's think about this, look at Windows, a monkey can learn how to use
it in 30 seconds to a minute, yet we still have many many system
administrators.

Chris - As I understand it, locally managed tablespaces with uniform
extents, possibly autoextensible, is the future direction for Oracle. This
will allow Oracle to be more easily managed. Probably put us DBAs out of
work, but hey something always seems to come up. The documentation states
that locally managed tablespaces can create extents faster than dictionary
managed, but I have never reached a point where it seemed to make a
difference. But I am using the locally managed alternative more because of
the nudge from Oracle's direction. Those are my thoughts anyway.
