"The role of database administrators (DBAs) is changing rapidly. Whereas data used to be neatly stored in database systems, it can now be found everywhere: in Parquet files, Excel spreadsheets, and countless cloud environments."
"The democratization of data has brought many benefits to organizations, but it has also made DBAs' work more complex than ever. Information moves freely between applications, storage layers, and users, quickly blurring the view of data and access rights. Kellyn and Tonie see that most companies are struggling with this development. No one knows precisely who has access to which data or who enters what into which system."
"The situation is becoming even more challenging with the rise of AI and advanced analytics. Many organizations want to innovate quickly with data and models but are skipping crucial governance and policy steps. The result is often a chaotic landscape in which data spreads before the right controls are in place."
Database administration responsibilities are shifting as data proliferates beyond traditional database systems into Parquet files, spreadsheets, and multiple cloud environments. Organizations face security, automation, and talent shortages while struggling to map access and responsibility across dispersed data. Data democratization accelerates access and innovation but increases complexity for managing permissions and provenance. The rise of AI and advanced analytics intensifies pressure to innovate quickly, often at the expense of governance and policy implementation. Redgate Ambassadors contribute expertise, tools, and learning to help address these challenges, while many companies continue to set up environments first and formalize governance later.
