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.
