Having seen the report previously I can say that IMHO it's an apples vs. oranges report. Given an experienced DBA on both systems I still believe that can do the same basic task in a similar amount of time & effort. Why, because they 1) understand the process for their RDBMS, and 2) they've scripted it all out in the first place. Now if your talking about an in-experienced person using the GUI's, well maybe Oracle is easier.

Any Oracle/DB2 dual DBAs out there that can comment on the Rauch report (no doubt financed by Oracle Corp)?

Not that I'm particularly impressed on the "ease" of generating stats in Oracle vs. DB2, but I'm just curious how the DB2 side applies to real-world. I haven't used most of the Oracle GUI stuff as reported.
