Administer a database server

- [Adam] Database administrators are tasked with protecting the valuable data that their organization has collected. In a world filled with hostile threats, this is an extremely important job that cannot be overlooked. You should consider that your database will eventually encounter hardware failures, or even sophisticated intrusion attempts by unauthorized hackers. The time and effort spent securing your systems will eventually pay off. Hi, my name is Adam Wilbert. I'm a LinkedIn Learning instructor that's introduced people all over the world to relational databases. In the fourth course in my database foundation series, we're going to explore the administration topics that'll help you secure and protect your data. I'll discuss the importance of making regular backups, setting up permissions for authorized user accounts, weathering a storm of hardware failures, and more. I'm happy to have you along for this journey. Let's get started.
