<RANT> This has all been tried before, and the predictions are the same: financial nirvana, big savings in technology costs, no pesky holier-than-thou DBA's baffling poor damagers with stuff they can't possibly understand. </RANT>
Very few executive, managers or DBA's are going to want to place their corporate data on Oracle's site, or even provide access to it from outside for non-employees. There's also the whipping boy factor. Who's butt you going to kick when the database is screwed up? ;) Heard a good quote on a documentary the other night: "A corporation has no soul to save nor an ass to kick". Someone local must be accountable for the data. The whole outsourcing thing is kind of baffling to me at times. Why not carry it out its fullest measure? Outsource mfg, sales, IT, design and executives. No need for any employees. Guess I turned of the rant too soon.
