Hi,

Anyone out there being affected by this ****py economy? I know dba jobs are the last one to go when a company starts to lay off people but thought I'd ask to see how it's affecting us DBA's.

I tried to do some research on remote dba jobs on both sql server dba and oracle dba and posted my oracle resume everywhere. I'm not sure how many of you are OCP certified.

Hopefully things don't go too sour.... ..

Actually my company outsourced DBA function to India. Becoming a practice in many companies for augmentation, but in our case it was a wholesale replacement.

ouch... that's a bit too much .. I think there should be some security concern as well. If it's not sensitive information then it maybe ok for most part . especially night pages. . . i hate to be woken up in the middle of the nite. but then again, some of these dba's are below junior level .....and they have such high turnovers there...

i guess in the long run the company saves some money but i'm sure they will realize sooner or later that it should be shared and not completly outsourced.
