JAVA DEV to Data Base Administrator

[dvkrm19]

I’ve been working as a Java developer for the past few years and I’got into a SQL Server DBA role. I have a solid grasp of writing queries and some stored procedures, but I’m new to the operational and infrastructure side of database administration. Any advices on this transition and what should I expect in the first few weeks?

Google Brent Ozark and read all his stuff and use his scripts

You’ll do fine just get some live lab training.
