DataGard and RMAN has been fun. But when thats over I dont think I will see anything new under the sun.

Talked to some folks doing Real Application Clusters, Oracle Portal on 9iAS, EMC disk, Oracle Workflow and a lot of PL/SQL.

I know that RAC is a hot skill to have and see some demand for 9iAS.

What opinion do you have on these technologies? I am thinking its a great move but will involve a big learning curve ( wont see much of the summer ).
