QUESTION 24 OF 25

Do you have experience with on-premises databases, cloud databases or both?

In today's technology environment, IT infrastructures can be located in various settings, including on-premises, hosted by a third party, or in the cloud. As a qualified database administrator, you should be able to manage the database in each of these environments. This requires knowledge of the differences between these infrastructures, how they impact the database's performance and any security issues you need to be aware of.

"I have direct experience managing databases both on-premise and in the cloud. I have also managed databases that are hosted at third-party data centers. While the fundamentals of database administration are the same in all three of these scenarios, some other issues should be considered. These include lag-time, security, and how to back up the database between the two sites. But again, I'm familiar with this and can easily accomplish this task."
