transaction processing capabilities have to be at their best at all times. The DBA
shall perform the following activities:
Trouble shoot database creation
Database installation if other than DB2
Database optimization
Facilitate Database level integrations with enterprise systems
Application Server Specialist
Depending on choice of application server, WebSphere or WebLogic, part time
involvement of application server specialist or administrator may be required.
This becomes more important if the implementation is complex with many
integrations and in a clustered environment.
Integration Specialist
This is an optional group of people and the size and skill of the integration team
may vary from customer to customer. Some special systems such as SAP,
Oracle and other niche products may require technical experts. Depending on
the project the main task will be to facilitate integration with external systems and
ensure bidirectional movement of data
The above list of various roles is not a permanent fixture for each project. There
can be more roles that are required and more than one person in a role. As
mentioned before each project is different and it is hard to generalize, however,
we have tried to cover most scenarios that we have encountered in our
implementation experiences.
