...the thread I started was about the practicality of using DG for a lot of databases. Maybe there is nobody on list that has more than, say, 10 database that need DR, but does the comment "(reasonably) easy to manage" hold fast if we are talking about providing DR for, say, 10 or 20 databases?

One of our accounts has over 80 databases that need DR and I must say that in my mind chewing on crushed glass would bring more pleasure than trying to deal with 80 primary/standby DG relationships... It just seems to me that at some number of databases, the only humanly possible way to get DR would be at the storage level... thoughts ?
