Databases rarely sit in the corner quietly doing their job. With thousands of different configuration settings and increasingly complicated resiliency and recoverability options, the need for an experienced database administrator has never been more crucial. A recent survey by Oracle suggests that more than 75% of database outages are caused by human error. An inexperienced, junior DBA can be an expensive option, one that many organisations can’t afford to take.
