Took me a while to get back here but I do understand your point and it's totally valid. That door swings both ways.

That's why it's hard for the two camps to work side by side.

NoSql gave power to the devs at the expense of the experience and wisdom of the database folks. I bet many many applications and systems were completely screwed datawise more than once because of devs and NoSql.

To be clear, I've known DBAs who act exactly like you described in your original comment. Very annoying.

The best I've seen it work is to have a DBA on the team building the application.
