In terms of career, salary etc.

    What are OIM, OAM, and IDM? Independent Data Manager, Internet Dance Master, Original Answer Machine, Optional Interesting Machines and a bunch of other things come to mind for what those acronyms could mean.

    Career advise questions are usually considered off-topic here, because they are 1. very subjective and 2. usually highly specific to the personal situation of the asker, so they provide almost no value for future visitors.

  • I know people in both fields that make tons of money. Which do you like better? Which are you better at? If you are a great Java developer and find Oracle stuff tedious, I'd stay away from Oracle,.... even if it pays more.

  • @L_7337 I like both of the fields. But i believe there are lot many java developer's out there and it's difficult to demand more salary from employer. And if i'm right, identity management is a special skill and so might pay me well. Am i wrong?

  • Can you demand more for a special skill? Yes,... when the market is good. But when the market is not as good, you may have a harder time finding a job. My only advice would be to pick one and put all your effort into developing that skill.

Adult: What do you want to be when you grow up?



Child: Happy!



Adult: You didn't understand the question.



Child: You didn't understand life!



The answer to any career advise question is highly subjective and depends on your personal situation and circumstances. It's impossible to tell which career-decision will lead to more salary and an easier career in the long-term, especially in a business which is as dynamic and changing as IT.



So the only advise one can give you is: Pick the job you enjoy more.
