下边是原文:
#1. Architects earn at least 20% more than database administers.
#2. Architects know how to do basic predictive analysis.
#3. DBA to Architect is a common career progression.
#4. Ensuring backups are good and constant firefighting can be for a season...not a career.
If you are ready to jump start your career, the question becomes, "How do I start?" One of the key elements with all architects is their ability to anticipate performance, risk, and utilization. They know how to answer questions such as, "What's going to happen when we place this SQL statement into production?" Or, "Does it make good

answer these questions is career limiting.
