true, going forward there  will not be demand for too many DBA's with AI based database tuning, oracle already implemented this in Oracle cloud, snowflake and other cloud databases have semi autonomous maintenance options

with so many options available on the cloud, companies no longer need to deploy servers on prem unless it is a must (very few applications)

past lo admin roles chesina vallu, can switch over to cloud admins and architects (jobs may be 10:2)

andaru coding cheyadaniki ready avutaaru..only few can excel
