Database Administrator Salary in Italy

Database Administrator pay in Italy: Milan leads, Rome trails

The Italy national median for a database administrator is 96.600 € a year. Among 2 metros with observed data, pay runs from about 62.000 € in Rome to 77.100 € in Milan (1.2×).

Database administrators manage the performance, security, and integrity of databases. Common screening skills include SQL, Backup, Tuning, and Replication.

A modeled national band runs about 65.300 €–134.900 € around that midpoint. Licensing and immigration rules are independent of this cash sort. Employment outlook for the occupation is sketched at +9% over a decade — a national demand guess, not a hiring guarantee in every Italian city.

Milan sits -20% vs the national median; Rome sits -36%. Relocating inside Italy for this title can move cash more than a small raise at the same desk. Open a city page for take-home and rent context — this national page is the map, not the offer.

Italy shows about 1.5% CPI in 2025. A database administrator raise that trails inflation is a real-pay cut even if it still beats last year’s peers. This occupation is also covered in 39 other countries — useful for remote or relocation shortlists, after FX and local tax.
