Re: Database Technology Roadmap

This sounds like a job for an IT DBA professional. Someone who reads all the trade publications,blogs, mail lists, has a significant pc lab at their home to compare products & technologies, someone who attends SIG groups pertaining to the field of interest. In other words some one who does their homework on a regular basis.

This individual would command a significant yearly salary for their investment of time and commitment .

No easy answers on this one.

Sorry

"Oracle error messages being what they are, do not
highlight the correct cause of fault, but will identify
some other error located close to where the real fault lies."
