Depends on what you work on. My experience as an (on prem) user and not a DBA was that it's nothing difficult for the out of the box stuff. But it did also give me enough rope to hang myself once I got creative and started building my own platform on top.

The good was I could build everything my team didn't know they needed while never leaving the tools both the company and I were used to. That means I could make everything faster. Didn't have to stumble around with a new vendor's tech regularly, and got to avoid the time sink of tech approvals (irrelevant in some companies/orgs, but huge in others).

The bad was that documentation gets pretty sparse once you start using something like an oversized swiss army knife.

Since we're here now, on a personal note... Having an overly integrated stack kinda hurt my resume. Everyone else got to doddle in things like cloud and several databases, while I lived and breathed my single-vendor on-prem deployment. Bleh. At least the concepts translate.

Yes. Knowing regular SQL will be fine.

Anyone know of an alternative to StackOverflow for asking tech questions?
