Hi DBAs
I have been working with Databases for the past 8 years in number of
different countries, started with Legacy Databases and Ended up with MS
Sql and Oracle. One of my clients asked to come in for an interview, I
have answered all of the heavy load questions, up until one of those goofy
Database consultants gave me a real simple question about Databases, I
wont say what was the Question to avoid another embarrassment, but that
guy made feel like mumbling idiot in that interview, I didn’t know what to
say
My point is even a real experienced DBA sometimes need to go over some
basic things
