Ian,
Past history forces me to disagree. If it takes Oracle as long to "perfect" AutoTuning as it has to "perfect" the Cost Based Optimizer, DBAs will continue to be in demand for decades to come!

I foresee the database being sold as a turn key product configured by Oracle
at a reduced price. In order to receive the discount the purchaser would
have to agree not to mess with the init<SID>.ora parameters, nor take any
action which would enable or disable any database options. "What?!, not
change init.ora parameters", you scoff. Remember that Oracle 9i has some
autotuning capability. I expect, at first, autotuning will not work as
advertised, but over time will mature into a powerful product.
