What is most likely to destroy an Oracle database is giving access to
any DBA activity that isn't a member of the DBA team and properly
trained in security, stability, performance tuning, scalability, and
other related issues.
I'd not give DB Console to a developer.
I'd not give Grid Control to a developer.
I'd not give RMAN to a developer.
And I sure wouldn't give SQLDMO to either a developer or end-user.
