I was wondering if anyone knows if MS is going to revamp
the MCDBA requirements once Yukon comes out. If so what
are they. I know my opinion isnt the majority, but I would
like to see more SQL focused exams like Oracle as opposed
to half SQL and half OS.

If you are already MCDBA certified you will probably just have to do one or
two upgrade exams. In any case, you won't have to re-take the os exams as
they will still be valid.
I would like to see seperate certification paths for database developers and
DBA's.
I would welcome more specialised SQL server exams - e.g. You could probably
devote a whole exam to DTS!

From a recent survey given out by MS, it sounds like the MCDBA track with
Yukon will be very interesting. If I remember correctly from the survey they
mentioned at least 6 different SQL exams. Plans could certainly change from
now to when they are released but I suspect it will be interesting
nonetheless.
