MCITP: Database Administrator
Microsoft Certified IT Professional: Database
Administrator (MCITP: Database Administrator) is the premier
certification for database server administrators. This
certification demonstrates that you can keep up with your
enterprise business solutions 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Database administrators install or configure
SQL Server and manage or maintain databases or multidimensional
databases, user accounts, database availability, recovery, and
reporting. They also design or implement security or server
automation and monitor and troubleshoot SQL Server activity.
Database administrators are typically employed by midsize to large
organizations.
MCITP candidates must first complete the
requirements for the MCTS: SQL Server 2005 certification (one
exam). After earning this certification, candidates earn their
MCITP: Database Administrator by passing two required exams.
