Administration of SQL Server can often be as simple as query tuning a T-SQL statement or configuring a server properly. When a Business Intelligence developer gets a hold of other ‘cool’ features provided in Standard or Enterprise Edition of SQL Server, then the range of knowledge a DBA has needs to keep up with developers. The administrator does not need to know how to develop an integration service (SSIS) package or create a calculated measure in analysis services (SSAS), but it is good to understand what is needed to help debug and maintain the features used in their enterprise IT systems. Most shops do not use all these components, but most do use more than one.
