I was thinking to suggestion a question to Steve. How many SQL instances/databases a DBA supports in average? I found this question is on today’s vote already. So next question could be how many Oracle instances an Oracle DBA support? How about Sybase, MySQL or DB2. I see the number for SQL is at the high end, Sybase as well. Wondering how the other people think and feel.

The numbers show the cost from certain point of view.
