RE: Dba's Role in a company

 

  

I got to agree with that one. For me, Oracle DBA has evolved into
database administrator, IT support, software installation, VBA
development, Unix System Administrator, desktop support for anything
that might be considered a database (Access, FileMaker, FoxPro,
SQLBase), network troubleshooting, intranet development.

At least they haven't given me a mop yet to clean up the 'data dumps' in
those rooms with plumbing.
