Hello all,
I think I'm finally going to try and become a DBA. I recently quit my Linux System Administration gig where I managed SaaS clusters in EC2 for a Jr. DBA position. I'm starting at the bottom and working my way to the top and so far love everything I learn about being a DBA and learning SQL. My employer is requiring I take/pass Database Fundamentals 98-364. It's been very interesting so far but don't want to under-estimate the exam especially since work is expecting it so if you have any advice / suggestions.
Also, I've deployed a PostgreSQL dedicated server and I've loaded sample databases and played w/ the sample data set however I'd like to point some application that will write live data to my cloud database server. I'm not talented enough to write anything that will connect and write data to the backend database. Anyone have any suggestions for any app I can point at my PostgreSQL box. Any suggestions?
