List and describe at least four other categories of tasks expected from a DBA. A DBA must ensure that: databases are useful, usable, available, and correct. there is database performance, monitoring, and tuning. there is access authorization and security. there is database backup and recovery. there are interfaces with databases.

Name some of these standards that, if practiced, could help in reducing cost of supporting end users. Your Answer: Standards are common practices that ensure the consistency and effectiveness of the database environment, such as database naming conventions. Procedures are defined, step-by-step instructions that direct the processes required for handling specific events, such as a disaster recovery plan.
