Lol

A DBA can involve a lot of design and development work, a great DBA is necessary for big apps with lots of data.

But they are two very different worlds.. DBA is all about the data, a pure wirehead / nerd type job, whereas a web dev is concerned about a lot of other things, like usability, psychology, even design, depending on what kind of web dev it is.. some web developers just code the pages but never worry or care how it looks, while others kind of do it all.

But very different kinds of jobs I think, hard to compare them. Like comparing apples and oranges.
