Answer: Logically you should finish the project at hand. Do not look at other things as of now. On completion of project, you may have a re-look at what you want to do.

Before you jump in to a new thing, say, D.B.A., try and evaluate as to why you want to be a D.B.A. The reason I am saying this is that you got in to software development by choice and now you want to get in to another area by choice.

Please ensure that you get in to something that you like and not keep on rolling from one aspect to another. Grass always appears greener on the other side of the ground.
