The new reality is that the barriers are gone. Ops must dev, dev must ops.

- gaius 8y agoWith MongoDB the devs said "we don't need a DBA anymore". But what they failed to understand was that the DBA was not the person who knew all the database command syntax, but rather the person who was responsible for the data - its availability, security, and so on. And getting rid of that person didn't get rid of the reason the job existed. I dare say that came as a bit of a shock. Well, serves them right for stabbing a fellow Worker in the back! And it is playing out exactly the same way in Cloud. All the responsibilities still exist, apart from the most basic ones such as "sweep the floor of the datacentre". Now who's going to take them?
