Surviving in an Autonomous World: An Old-School DBA's Handbook

Quest Forum Digital Event 2020

With Oracle’s release of Autonomous DataWarehouse, Autonomous Database, and Autonomous Transaction Processing, we are entering a new era in database administration.  How is an old-school DBA supposed to survive in this brave new world of automation?  Are my existing skills obsolete? Am I out of a job? Never fear.  In this session, we’ll discuss what exactly all this autonomous fuss is all about and what it will mean to the daily life of a DBA.  We’ll draw comparisons to (soon to be legacy) tasks that all DBA’s are comfortable with and how these tasks will be handled in an autonomous world.  We’ll show you how to leverage your old school skills to be your biggest advantage in an autonomous world and position you to take your career to the next level in an Autonomous World.
