To be Procative or Reactive DBA ????
443104Jul 31 2007 — edited Dec 14 2011Hi all,
In my short career I have been observing the proactive and reactive approach. Its really good to be proactive but being reactive really pays a lot.
When you are reactive, everybody knows that there's a problem at times higher management also steps in. When you solve the problem, you are hero to everybody.
If you are proactive and solve the problem before it hits, nobody recognizes your efforts. You are just an ordinary DBA with good knowledge.
Your experience and comments are requested ......
