| I am wondering what job title(s) is for a certain task.The task is of creating Database Upgrade packages - from a Development or Test Database - and providing that to another Department or Vendor to apply on their Databases including their Production. The Database Upgrade Packages consist a number of SQL steps for things like Table changes, Stored Procedures, Views and Insert/Update statements.What job title would this task go under:A) Database AnalystB) Database AdministratorC) Database DeveloperD) Software DeveloperE) Development DBAFeel free to answer that it could apply to more than one and which one would this task best fit under. |

| Thankyou. Software Developer - that is interesting. I don't mean the actual writing of the Stored Procedures, rather creating the Release Package - sql scripts - that promotes these to Production and hands that off for Production deployment.Also, do you think the term DBA implies that the person is either a Production DBA or does some Production activities? In other words, if someone does not do Production Database related tasks, they would not likely have the job title of DBA? |

| It depends on the organization. In large organizations - preparation of packages is nomrally created by Development DBA or DA type of description. A Prod DBA would deploy - without necessarilly having knowledge of the package details/Jack Vamvas--------------------http://www.sqlserver-dba.com |
