    When I have heard that MYSQL is also now governed by Oracle...

    Is the future secure of mssql DBA's

    Currently in market only two Giants of databases Oracle and MSSQL.

    As everyone is seeing the growth of Oracle exponentially..

    Anywhere if oracle and MSSQL DBA are sitting then oracle guy is always thought as better...

    Or

    Should We start to learn Oracle also...

    Thanks

    You do whatever you feel is best for your career. It never hurts to have a differnet infrastructure skill-set and there will always be projects to run cross-platform queries/packages etc. And dont forget legacy consolidation (which ever direction it may take).

    MS SQL is likely to always be around and grow! Its a much better all-in-one package and offers basic functionality in areas that Oracle does not (ie Reporting services) and with a relatively inexpensive license model, MS SQL is more attractive to SMB's.

    Does that answer your question?
