Ask HN: What is the future for Oracle DBAs?
5 by rkrishnaan | 3 comments on Hacker News.
I am asking for a friend who is an Oracle DBA with 10+ years of experience. These days she is seeing the number of opportunities dwindling and the hourly rates going down (thank you AWS, Azure, GCP...). So how can she transition her career going forward ? Does taking a break and doing a 6 month diploma in Data Science course and transitioning into Data Science career help? Should note that she loves her job as a DBA but just worried that it is not going to work out in the long term. Please advise.
