Database administrators identify user requirements, set up computer databases, and test and coordinate modifications to the systems. An organization's database administrator ensures the performance of the system, understands the platform on which the database runs, and adds new users to the system. Because they also may design and implement system security, database administrators often plan and coordinate security measures. With the volume of sensitive data generated every second growing rapidly, data integrity, backup systems, and database security have become increasingly important database jobs and aspects of the job of database administrators. Other database management jobs require use of database tools like SQL and Crystal Reports to pull extracts and reports from databases.
