Certainly do Martin, not always in house apps and devs that do it
either, two off-the-shelf examples that make life "fun" where I am, are
the atrocious code of  Siebel ( a thoroughly nasty application ) and
Business Objects.

I work with a very talented group of developers. Yes, they have their
faults -- but so do I. The vast majority of code that I watch flying
through our database that needs tuning is the generated crap. Anyone
else see the same stuff?

No reason to not have both, and the companies you mention have
very good reasons for using the tools they do.

Matt, I think your perspective may be a bit different than many 
of the respondents to this thread.

Many DBA's have to deal with developers that (speaking only of 
databases here) know how to use a hammer, and every data 
storage solution looks like a nail.
