As I said, loaded question. Which is sure to provoke a Holy War.
Therefore I'd say this is a biased view. But of course having a biased
view is part & parcel of being a DBA. As for salary, I've no experience
with DB2 salaries, but Oracle salaries do top those of Sql Server.

Is this a biased view? How about the salary difference?

Subject: DBA Role
I am currently looking into exploring other career paths within the IT
industry, specifically the DBA role. I am hoping that someone will be
able to provide some insight into the DBA role, for example, which is
the best path to go...DB2, Oracle, SQL, etc.? Are there any books you
can recommend? What is life like in the day and life of a DBA? What are
the different avenues available to a DBA? What certifications do
employers look for in a DBA?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Jessica
