The Exceptional DBA Awards are back in 2009!

It's time for the Exceptional DBA Awards again, and SQLServerCentral.com and Red Gate want to give recognition to a DBA for outstanding work and achievements.

Secure and available data is crucial for a company's success, and so are the DBAs. All too often DBAs don't get the respect they deserve. And if you agree with us that it's time to change this, then please help us find 2009's Exceptional DBA Awards winner!

"If you are an exceptional DBA, or know of an exceptional DBA, I encourage you to participate in the Exceptional DBA Awards. Not only will it give you or some exceptional DBA some much-deserved recognition, it will also help to increase the awareness of the importance of the DBA role among the IT community."
Brad McGehee, Exceptional DBA Awards Judge
