Yet it's the sysadmin who gets blamed, not the developer. "How can you tune the database so this doesn't happen?"
I am telling you this because hopefully it will make you feel a little better. Our head of it blames devs for slow queries.
In my 30 years of experience, it is usually the devs.
As a dev, yes usually. It is certainly the better starting point.
I'm the sysadmin (and transitioning to DevOps) at work, but the DBs are 100% in control of our two devs (one of which being the head of IT).
Apparently we're going to hire a third Dev, who will moonlight as our DBA -- oh, and for 30K/yr.
I'm sure this will go well.
At my job, it's almost always the dev team that is called first for bad DB performance (not always, because sometimes it is the server that's borked).
Infinitely this, biggest pet peeve
