Abstract

The increasing complexity of Database ManagementSystems (DBMSs) and the dearth of their experiencedadministrators make an urgent call for an AutonomicDBMS that is capable of managing and maintainingitself. In this paper, we examine the characteristics thata DBMS should have in order to be consideredautonomic and assess the position of today'scommercial DBMSs such as DB2, SQL Server, andOracle.
