Death of DBA Via SQL Server 2010
It has been a long running rumor that Microsoft wants to eliminate the DBA layer rather the management of databases should be as easily like any other application. With the features list in SQL Server 2010 it sounds like they are trying to acheive that.
* Self tuning with the help of DMVs
* Best Practices policies enforced by DMVs
But the DBAs across the globe are hoping things will not get changed drastically due to these features. Lets hope for the best.
