APPS DBA

hi everybody
i am a student
i came to know about oracle ERP during my internship and from then on i got interested in this field.
hsawwan,
u have always been a source of inspiration for me and it was because of you that
i chose this ORACLE as my career.
i still remember that during my internship i had a problem in my apps software and
u helped me regardless of my knowledge and it took you almost an hour in explaining to me
"how to log in using sqlplus"
and in later time when i came to know about how senior u were
it made u look more great in my eyes.
what you are doing is really a great great great job :).
after my internship during this one year i have completed my OCA,OCP exams
and now i am about to graduate in two months and i am ready to learn new things.
reason i have set this topic is because i am a little bit confused over something
hope you guys can help me
i want to become ORACLE APPS DBA
now in lot of job postings i have seen that RAC certification is also required.
my question is ;
should i go for RAC certification 1st and then APPS ???
OR
should i go for apps certification 1st ???
what is the importance of RAC certification in dba world ???
for apps certification would it be better if i include this RAC certification in my profile ???
regards !

Hi,
Thanks for the words of appreciation. I am glad to know that I have been of real help.
now in lot of job postings i have seen that RAC certification is also required.Very true :)
my question is ;
should i go for RAC certification 1st and then APPS ???
OR
should i go for apps certification 1st ???If you are planning to find an Apps DBA job, then I would suggest you go with Apps first, then do the RAC study/certification later. You should be able to manage to find an Apps DBA job where RAC is not really required (RAC is a plus).
what is the importance of RAC certification in dba world ???Most of the big companies have RAC implemented, so if your dream is to work for such employers, you will have to focus on the RAC track and do the certification (at least know the concept and get familiar with it).
for apps certification would it be better if i include this RAC certification in my profile ???RAC certification has nothing to do with Apps certification, and you can get the Apps certification without having any knowledge about RAC. However, writing the RAC exam and getting the certification would give the impression that you are familiar with the RAC topic (or I would say Expert as the certification title says). For now, I would suggest you go with Apps certification first, and try to find an Apps DBA job, and later on you can study the RAC topic and appear for the exam. If you are looking for RAC material, please let us know.
Good luck!
Regards,
Hussein

  • Role of Apps DBA in Implementing New Module

    Hi Friends,
    Supposing a company has a running smooth production system of EBS 11i. With modules
    FINANCIALS(GL,AR,AP,FA,CM) in it. Then the Company want to add another module HR system. Is an Apps DBA needed in the scenario? or only the SysAdmin and Functional
    Consultant only.
    What is the role of an AppsDBA in implementing a new module?
    Thank a lot

    It is the responsibility of both the System Administrator and the Apps DBA. If you need to change the status of HR module to fully installed, then you need to change the status from shared to fully installed (in case it is shared). You will also need to run DataInstall and apply hrglobal.drv driver using adpatch.
    For more details, refer to:

    Which career is most rewarding one in terms of Salary, Job Security and Least amount of workThat's entirely up to you. No one but you knows what you consider important, what you find interesting, what you find satisfying.

    Regards,
    AsifMy original comment aside, I find these comments from you rather, uh, "enlightening".
    "Which career is most rewarding one in terms of . . . Least amount of work"
    "which career will be . . . easy to learn"
    Since "easy" and "least work" seem important to you, I'd suggest a career in something besides IT. I could make some specific suggestions but run the risk of insulting people who work in those areas.
