Now, I don't think it's DBAs that increase the costs of the project, I think it
the DB Licenses that do.
Now now! We won't have any of that reality stuff here! Next someone might
actually think they can save on licensing?
As a sidenote: where I work, we just paid Oracle more for a full cpu-based
license than they have paid me in 4 years of work there.
While deciding to use MSSQL for the next main application...
Yeah: DBAs are "expensive". Of course!...
wait, we went from the 4k of a SE to 20K in licensing... per CORE... fun! (I
might be off in the numbers as I've never actually had to deal with licenses...
You are... Per core is a lot more than that, nowadays.
Anyway, luckily (or regrettably?) it is not the case here that developers
(regular ones at least) are paid more than dbas... :-P not that we get paid a
lot... I think that speaks to the level of the devs' salaries more than it does
to the dba's
Don't worry, they'll soon fix that!
