... observations from my short time in the parallel universes (informix/oracle).... >>I have just completed the Oracle Fundamentals I course, and I was always very curious why people said "for every Informix DBA you need 4 Oracle DBA's". I now tend to agree with this statement. Ok, ok... Let's be honest.... 4 oracle dbas per informix dba may be a bit of a stretch... Even 2 oracle dbas per informix might stretch it (so I like to say 1.5)... Depending on how many oracle databases are being serviced and the perfectionism level of the DBA ...that will play into the personnel ratio.
