Database administrators (DBAs) are vital to the smooth operation of every large business, government or organization. But how much do you really know about what DBAs do?
Datavail's J.P. Chen reveals the five basic duties of the database administrator. He explains what problems DBAs can solve and the one problem they can never solve. He shows how DBAs often make personal sacrifices in order to achieve optimal organizational results. And he encourages managers to better understand the lives and needs of DBAs, who are, after all, responsible for database integrity, availability, recoverability, performance and security.
