Only sometimes? If that is truly the trend, no wonder so
many such projects fail!

FYI, I found this on the computerworld web site:
Database administrator
"It's not that it's a hot one," Mark
Krusinski at
Emerald Resource Group Inc. in Broadview
Heights, Ohio, says about database
administrators
(DBA). "It remains constant. It's not
weakening."
DBAs - particularly for Oracle - can
always get a job,
according to recruiters. The demand for
Oracle administrators is highest, but
Microsoft Corp.'s
SQL Server is growing, even at
high-transaction firms that should be
Oracle Corp.'s
bread and butter. And every recruiter
seems to have some base of clients that
use Sybase,
Informix or DB2. And watch out for
IBM's new product later this year.
The bottom line is that no company
subtracts DBAs; they
only add more, gradually, as their
departments grow.
"There's actually more need for that
than ever before
because the rest of the organization is
screaming for that data," says Jones.
She points out
that DBAs sometimes become necessary
in new data architecture or warehousing
projects.
