Re: Role of DBA Changing

 Nilesh,      

Besides what the listers have already shared,   

one of the technically aligned way is to focus   

on database offerings/specialties (unless   

 you want to move purely towards architecture   

 work), by the cloud vendors & get oneself   

 skilled up on it.      

Regards   

Rajeev
