Skilling up is one thing, proving you can deliver is quite another.
    thanks

    i head for contracting, i have identified couple of areas to focus on


    1. oracle BI / ms sql BI
    2. or Oracle E-Business Suite 12
    3. ....

    I am a little bit unsure about following

    * pay rate
    * market demand for each of above
    * their suitability and whether can be handy skills to have for dba contractor

    i personnaly feel ebusiness is difrentt to my dba background/ and not my specialized area.
    where as with BI I think its one of the natural moves and can come very handy in soon future,
    do you guys agree ?
    can you guys add any other important areas to the list that im missing ?

    Im already experienced with typical dba tasks : performance tuning, rac, data guard etc.. have managed various build and implementations projects.
