Hi Cherie,
Here we have 3 dedicated db hosts, 4 databases. 1 DBA, 1 SA, plus one person who can back both of us up.
I hope this helps you. I know your numbers are a complete nightmare.

Is there any sort of rule-of-thumb for how many database
that a DBA should be expected to support? I realize
that the answer would vary based on size of databases,
stability, production vs. development, mission critical,
24/7, etc.
But in general, how many databases would you think a DBA should be supporting if you divide the total number of databases in an organization by the number of DBAs supporting them?
How many databases do you support on average? What is the size of your team?
Trying to get ideas for the head count of our DBA team here and wondering what the industry standard is.
Thanks
Cherie
