Understanding Database Administration
In the Information Technologies industry there are few domains less understood than Database Administration.
People keep asking what the responsibilities of a Database Administrator are, what the specific tasks and processes Database Administrators rely on to fulfill those responsibilities, and by which rules Database Administrators abide to deal with whatever they do.
Some people ask those questions out of simple curiosity, others because they are in, or close to, a DBA role and others because they have to deal with DBAs in a user, developer, management, etc. capacity and want to have a better understanding of the DBA world.
Everyone has her/his own reasons to ask questions about the database administration world; questions are always the same.
This book intends to answer those questions.
This is a technology agnostic book that applies to the field of database administration in general rather than focusing on any specific database vendor technology in particular. The intention is to help you understand the world of Database Administration without resorting to technicalities, independently of the technology of choice and without a single SQL command.
Enjoy it.
