Abstract
Managing large servers and databases while maintaining the uninterrupted functioning of critical applications presents significant challenges for database administrators. Automating database administration has become a crucial component in enhancing high availability, reliability, efficiency, and scalability. To reduce mistakes, minimize manual interventions, and improve database process performance, automation is essential. Important components include disaster recovery plans, security monitoring, performance review, and automatic backups, all of which are intended to prevent data loss. This study explores how businesses use automated database administration and contemporary automation techniques to maintain a competitive edge in an increasingly data-centric environment.
