Re: senior oracle dba

Bp,

All I know is that I'm not a senior DBA. I think you'll know if you really are or not. Have you worked with clustered databases, different types of partitioning, different os / io / backup architectures, rman, fgac, capacity planning, tuning, etc? There's a million things you may or may not have had exposure to, and while there isn't a magical number where you qualify I think it's where you have experienced a lot.

I've worked with people who have been working with Oracle for ~15 years and their understanding of the product, and history of experiences, makes me realise how "junior" I am.

Are you asking because you are considering applying for a job or perhaps looking for a change to your position description?
