A day in the life of Today's DBA is a hectic and often chaotic mixture of firefighting, finger pointing and having to manage a wide range of technologies. This was true for Kyle Mertz, the Lead on the Next-Gen Database team at Express Scripts.

You're likely familiar with Express Scripts. You may even have their prescription card in your wallet. Express Scripts is a healthcare opportunity company. That means where others see problems, they see potential. From pharmacy and medical benefits management to specialty pharmacy care, and everything in between – Express Scripts seeks to uncover opportunities to make healthcare better. They rely on the uptime and availability of data to be a market leader.

Kyle and his team at Express Scripts had been managing database health and performance in a reactive mode, responding to "the server is slow" issues as they occurred and were striving to implement a more proactive and efficient method of resolution. On top of this, Kyle was tasked with implementing his company's strategy for adopting and embracing new database technologies to address productivity, cost control, and broad data management initiatives. Kyle needed to ensure the health of Express Scripts existing infrastructure while preparing for the future.
