On Database Skills and DBA Salaries

Posted on 09:54 by Unknown
Just a quick post today to point you over to my Data Management Today blog. I use this blog to talk about data management issues that are not specific to DB2, whereas this blog focuses almost exclusively on DB2 (and mainframe) topics.

But two recent posts at my other blog may be of interest to readers of my DB2 Portal blog. They deal with the topics of employability and pay -- two topics that are near and dear to the heart of IT and database professionals.

Here are links to those posts:
  • DBA Salary Update - a look at a couple of recent salary surveys
  • Database Skills Are In Demand - a look at a recent study on IT skills

If you find these posts interesting, subscribe to my Data Management Today blog (via RSS) and/or check in regularly.
