Hi , I am oracle / mssql Database Administrator with 14 years of experience.
With the changing database landscape, I am confused with my career future and kind of lost which side to take my career too.
Is it to go with cloud or take db SRE kind of role or stick with traditional DBA and improve in that or completely change the profile
Please enlighten me thanks

It all depends on your interest. Working as a cloud engineer or operations engineer sounds a logical move. Get a certification in AWS or MS Azure might be a good first step. SQL is still widely used in industry. So you can trying moving to a data engineer role.

Good points. I’m working as an Oracle DBA in the defense industry but am getting the impression that it might be worthwhile to investigate AWS cloud solutions in order to stay relevant.
