I've read on a DB book that the Responsibilities of Database Administrator (DBA) are among others

1) Deciding the storage structure and access strategy
2) Liaising with users
3) Defining authorization checks and validation procedures
4) Defining a strategy for back-up and recovery
5) Monitoring performance and responding to changes in requirements

Using MsAccess, i can't put hand on these features, any explanation on what they are meant for and how they are implemented ?

thanks

I would imagine in this context, MS Access is used as an ADP. Therefore, the above points would apply to the corresponding DBMS.

Even in just a Access there are elements listed that must be done.

Where and how is it stored? Split DB ? Synchronized DB?

The end user is a costomer no matter the complexity of the application what they want determines your job security, listen to them.

DB security.

Sounds self explanatory. Access may not have built in back up features Per Se, does the server where it resides?

Is the DB running slow? Coyld the Data be structured to improve performance. How is the server doing? Check the logs.

My thoughts as I sit here and make an application to be used through out the organization. I'm thinking yeah I have to do all this and then some.
