The reason why I am asking is i have recently shifted from .Net to SQL server DBA and I got the job in no time, I am very much interested in troubleshooting rather then praogramming. So sometimes I get this thought did i took the right step or not, had I been taken cloud computing to secure my future can someone answer this coz I am relatively have very very little or no knowledge about cloud computing.Question:1. Will cloud computing consume DBA jobs.2. Is there a way I can do some cloud computing courses which will be related to DBA, I heard about hadoop, and azure,can someone please suggest...Thanks in advance[/quote]Buck Woody has an excellent post on this http://sqlblog.com/blogs/buck_woody/archive/2013/01/29/how-does-the-cloud-change-a-database-administrator-s-job.aspx Also, Steve has a good write up on The Future of DBAs --http://voiceofthedba.wordpress.com/2012/11/14/the-future-of-dbas/Fri, 22 Feb 2013 10:24:00 GMTSQLQuest29http://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic1421573-2799-1.aspxhello All,I have a little question about DBA job future in near time, as there is a gradual shift fto cloud computing, I get a doubt sometime will cloud computing consume DBA jobs.
