Asking for a friend, DBA with 7 years experience. How do you see the future of DBAs given that most companies will adopt managed services in the cloud? How to pivot? What technologies would you learn and change role/domain? Goal is to get in to a tier 1 company, maximize TC.

Some potential pivots:
- Become a generalist Cloud SA
- Kubernetes
- Devops
- Big Data Architect
