Job profile of a Database Developer

Hi, I am a fresher interested in Databases. I would like to have an in depth knowledge in databases. I am familiar with SQL and PL/SQL. I would like to know more about how databases are being used and implemented in Software Applications. As a developer(*in Java*) what exactly would your duties be in a team, related to databases?
Would a project development team have seperate developers for designing the front end(GUI) and another set of developers to interact with the database?
(I dont want the job description of a DBA, based on application development what would your role be, pertaining to databases?)

The profile will depend almost entirely on the company and the project. If your application architecture makes extensive use of packages, procedures, and function, that's going to be very different than applications that are designed with no stored procedures that puts all the logic in the middle tier. If you use an ORM tool, you probably rarely write SQL. If your project doesn't use an ORM, they probably write SQL by hand. Some groups will have dedicated PL/SQL developers, some will have the Java developers write PL/SQL, some will have certain Java developers that specialize in PL/SQL.

  • DBA Job Profile as Career

    Hi Guys
    I am currently working on PL/SQL and ORACLE Database. I am thinking of choosing Oacle DBA as my career path.
    I'd like to know how's the growth of DBA's (in terms of salary) and scope in IT industry (in INDIA) compare to other IT job profile .
    I heard that DBA's have to work for long hours , it's kind of boring job ,DBA's have to provide support 24 hours and there is no personal life for DBA's, Is it true guys?
    I want to know how is DBA's job profile considering salary , personal life and all other aspects so I can choose DBA path on long term basis.
    Please give me your suggestion guys.

    I heard DBA's have to work 24*7 in shifts to maintain databases in Production Environment.All DBA's have to do so or there are other scenarios also.
    And in which case or what kind of project DBA's work in normal working hours.
    Please Guide
    "I heard "
    ============================================================================
    Guy: Where did you hear that?
    Girl: On the internet
    Guy: And you believed it?
    Girl: Sure. They can't put anything on the internet that isn't true

    Well, that pretty well sums it up ... either all DBA's work 24*7 ... or they don't.
    Don't you suppose that what is required of a DBA .. of anyone .. at a particular company ... at any company ... depends on the particular company and it's business requirements?
    ============================================================================
    "When I use a word," Humpty Dumpty said in rather a scornful tone, "it means just what I choose it to mean -- neither more nor less."
    (Lewis Carroll - Through the Looking Glass)
    And so it is with job titles.  Any given job title means only and exactly what the organization chooses it to mean -- "neither more nor less".
    ============================================================================
    You have to ask yourself why you think you want to become a dba .. or any other profession.   Is it for the money?  Do you enjoy walking a tightrope without  a net?  Is the money worth it?  I've been reading a lot of Benjamin Franklin lately.  One of his favorite phrases is "don't spend too much for the whistle."  Or one of my favorites, "Don't spend you life climbing a ladder just to discover it was leaning against the wrong wall."

  • When uploading my formatted resume to my Apple Jobs profile, I am always presented with a c:\fakepath message and the resume does not upload. How can I rectify this?

    When uploading my formatted resume to my Apple Jobs profile, I am always presented with a c:\fakepath message and the resume does not upload. How can I rectify this?

    Add this one to the list of thinks that don't work on the Apple Job Board. It looks like Apple is using ADP's VE (Virtual Edge) technology to run this system, and I've been stupified by the number of features that are just broken, or so poorly thought out by ADP as to be unusable, (certainly for webkit and mozilla browsers at least: I didn't bother checking IE.)
    Here are a few highlights:
    "My Job List", list of jobs applied for, seems to max out at three. You can apply for more than that, but you can only see the first three.
    "Search Using Your Resume" feature yields few or no results, even when the pasted text contains only common, exactly matched words like 'Design' or 'Engineer'.
    The missing resume upload, described in this thread.
    "My Job Agent" seems to never flag anything, at least it hasn't ever for me despite pretty loose criteria.
    Agent's created using "My Job Agent" eventually just disappear, which is fine because they don't seem to work.
    When updating a profile, acknowledging the 'Terms' happens twice in a row. 
    Job seekers can only supply one cover letter despite being able apply for several jobs.
    Pagination for search results only appears at the top of the page, so it's necessary to scroll down through each page, then up to the top again to proceed to the next page.
    Well, I'm sure there are others, but you get the idea. I hope the Apple folks can fix this, (or twist ADP's arm to fix it,) so it better represents the quality of experience that Apple is so respected for consistently delivering.

  • Microsoft Exchange Mailbox Replication service was unable to process jobs in a mailbox database 1006.

    HI all,
    I ran into a problem with one of the servers in my DAG.  Due to a backup failure, the log partition filled up and the Exchange database went offline on this particular server.  The DAG continued to function on the other server.  So this particular
    DB01 had only some test accounts in it so I removed the database copy.  Unfortunately the removal must not have completed correctly. 
    After recovering the needed space in the partition, I tried to recopy the database and it failed.  So I deleted the entire database from the active server and it successfully removed it from the active server.  Now on both the servers the database
    is not showing, however I'm receiving the error below which indicates to me that the service still thinks the database exists.  I am also getting event 4113 Database redundancy health check failed for the database copy as it shows there is only one copy
    of the database (failed redundancy) but there should be zero copies.
    This database no longer exists in AD as I have verified this with ADSI so it must have something on the exchange server that is still telling the service the database exists. 
    Can you point me to the location to clean this up?

    Hi
    This error occurs because the MailboxReplicationService (MRS) currently caches Mailbox Database information past the lifetime of some databases. 
    Restarting the service will clear the cache.
    Maybe it is the simplest way to solve it.
    If it doesn’t work, you can try cmd to check it.
    Get-MailboxDatabase : Can you find the database which you delete?
    Remove-MailboxDatabase -Identity "MyDatabase": You can try to delete database if you can see the database.

    But still got message - "BUILD SUCCESSFUL" at the end. Does anyone know how to solve this problem?
    My intention of performing FOD schema installation was to follow the tutorial "Database Development with JDeveloper" at http://st-curriculum.oracle.com/obe/jdev/obe11jdev/ps1/databasedevelopment/obe_%20databasedevmt.htm. But I stopped at the last topic "Creating and Debugging PL/SQL Objects in the Database" ->"Running a SQL Script to Create an Object Type" when trying to create a object using script on the page.
    This is the script:
    ------------------------------------------------start
    REM
    REM Create object ORDER_ITEMS_REC
    REM
    CREATE or REPLACE type ORDER_ITEMS_REC as object
    ORDER_ID NUMBER(15),
    LINE_ITEM_ID NUMBER(3),
    PRODUCT_ID NUMBER(15),
    QUANTITY NUMBER(6),
    UNIT_PRICE NUMBER(8,2),
    CREATED_BY VARCHAR2(60),
    CREATION_DATE DATE,
    LAST_UPDATED_BY VARCHAR2(60),
    LAST_UPDATE_DATE DATE,
    OBJECT_VERSION_ID NUMBER(15)
    show errors;
    --------------------------------------------------end
    and the error message I got was
    ------------------------------------------------start
    Error report:
    ORA-01031: insufficient privileges
    01031. 00000 - "insufficient privileges"
    ------------------------------------------------end
    I was wandering whether the error of FOD installation could cause the error of the tutorial?
    Any response will be appreciated.

    1. you dont have to insall Oracle database at the BO machine side, you just need any database to hold the BO repository.
    2. you cant connect directly using BO, only Crystal reports can connect directly to R3 database, you need to have a BW in between.
    extract your data into the BW, and let BO connect to BW using the BO integration kit for SAP solutions.
    3. no you dont have to have 3 different machines, using one BO machine you connect to them all, but you may need build a  BO environment, (Development, Production servers)
    good luck

  • How to check my job name from the database...

    how to check my job name from the database...
    what is the command used to check the job_name ????You can use USER_JOBS view to check. But, is it not that you have just created the Job, so you must be knowing it?
    and how can i ensure that my job scheduler is running properly...???If USER_JOBS.FAILURES is Non Zero, that means the Job has encountered a problem that needs to be Investigated. Similarly, the LAST_DATE, LAST_SEC, NEXT_DAY, NEXT_SEC can be used to determine if the Job has been running successfully.
    if you are on 11g, you should consider using DBMS_SCHEDULER.

  • Is there a web-only database development environment?

    I have a database solution to create that only needs to be accessible via web browsers. I do not have an existing database, so it is not a matter of connecting an existing database to the web.
    Is there a web-only database development environment that would allow me to create the entire database without some non-web database environment like Oracle, Access, 4D, FileMaker etc.
    I guess what I want is a web-native database, I don't want to construct it in some environment that has to be "interpreted" in order for it to be presented to a web browser.

    Databases are databases. I'm not aware of any products that are specialized for web-only access. And I can't see such a product succeeding, since the existing products are already accessible via web programming.
    I don't know what the remarks about "interpreted" mean so I can't help you there.

  • Database development practise advise

    Hi friends,
    I am a fresher in the Development field..coming straight from college and certified in Oracle SQL so far, currently working on Pl/sql certification.

    I think besides the options told by Srini an Andy, reading the below book at this stage especially would be very helpful because it would be very tough to unlearn the wrong habits once you would come into the field.

  • Database Development perspective not in list

    Hi
    I know I'm probably being thick but I can't seem to find the Database Development option in my perspective list any longer.
    When I download a fresh copy of ganymede from oracle (with the oepe stuff bundled) and load it up the perspective is
    still not in the list. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
    Thanks

    I've just downloaded OEPE 11g (Windows all in one zip file) at http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/oepe/oepe_11g.html. After I unzip it, I was able to go to Database Development perspective.
    Did you use OEPE 11g update site and only installed OEPE plugins into your existing workspace? That should still work and you should be able to go to Database Development perspective as long as you are running Eclipse Ganymede (3.4) .
    Database Development perspective is part of DTP. Go to Software updates and check your installed software. If you don't see various Data Tool Platform plugins, that might be your problem. You can use Ganymede update site to install Data Tool Platform plugins. Alternatively, if you install OEPE plugins using OEPE update site, it'll automatically install required Data Tool Platform plugins.

  • Database Development IDE's and Tools?

    What do folks using Mac / OS use for Database development. I'm new to the mac after many years using PC's with SQL server and Visual Basic and such. I'd like to do some SQL and MSTransact like SQL and have a RAD tool or something that would allow me to develop tables and queries, views, etc,. I don't really like MySQL, but thought about it, but have never seen a Desktop Tool for it? I don't want a web or cloud tool, nothing against those, but prefer my old ways. :-)
    Thanks so much in advance.

    The native data management approach can involve using the provided object graph data persistence tool (which is slightly different than a database) known as Core Data (Apple Core Data docs) — this'll be very different than what you're accustomed to. 
    For GUIs when you aren't rolling your own SQL code, there's Sequel Pro, Navicat and alternatives. 
    MariaDB and MySQL should be compatible, and there are kits for MySQL around for OS X.  OS X Server includes PostgreSQL, but AFAIK that database is not particularly exposed by Apple.
    Python, Perl, php, Ruby and related scripting languages all have database APIs, with varying degrees of portability.  (These languages are among the closest analogs to Visual BASIC on OS X.)
    If you're writing a client for a web service or ODBC/JDBC, or maybe (as I'm investigating) OwnCloud. 
    Xcode doesn't include generic database development mechanisms; NoSQL or SQL options, nor capabilities other than for Core Data.
    FWIW, these sorts of programming question would be more common over in the Apple developer forums, too; more developers over there than around here. 
    You also now have some good web search terms, too.

  • Database Development Perspective

    Hi all,
    I'm following the following tutorial: https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/00bddb57-456c-2b10-cc8d-b6980d75299b
    It mentions a "Database Development Perspective" several times, where it seems I should be able to check the "Data Source Explorer" to see the default schema of the database created, and set a dictionary as a datasource.
    Well, I'm ubale to find such perspective.
    Probably it doesn't appear because of my developer studio version (I'm using 7.0.16). Is there someway I can get this perspective to show up? Maybe I need to download some kind of plugin? Or is there some other way to do what I intend to using the 7.0.16 available perspectives?
    Thanks and regards!

    Hi,
    1. Select the view on Window -> Open Perspective -> Other -> Database Development
    or
    2. Window -> Show View -> Other -> Connectivity -> Data Source Explorer
    If you get an error using Maxdb like:
    Unable to locate zip/jar in file system as specified by the driver definition <..sapdb_installation..>
    \programs\runtime\jar\sapdbc.jar
    3. Point to "sapdbc.jar" file. Use Windows search to find it and create the JDBC connection.
    I hope this helps.
