Any Database Specialist here?


I just wanted to know a little about what your job intails. Nothing long and detailed.
I am working on a Degree as a Database Specialist and just want to make sure it is something I really want to get in to.
I am just taking my basic CIS coursed so I have time to change my direct focus.
Thx for any positive input.

DB Analyst or what ever the title is will preside over

*Database security--securing access to certain people or certain data

*Database health--Making sure the server stays patched, and that there is sufficient capacity for the needs of the company

*Disaster Recovery--Create, implement and PRACTICE disaster recovery with an outside vendor. Particularly, making sure you can bring up your database at an offsite location in case of a disaster where your datacenter is unusable or inaccessable-->Remember 9/11, companies without a disaster plan were out of business in about a year.

*Data access plans--Providing your users with efficient queries by creating and maintaining alternate indexes.

the list goes on and on........Good career choice!
