Hi Ashish,

Why is your company wanting you to work on BW? Since you are already working on Datastage so you will know how the current demand of it and how it may going to be in the future ( at least some analytical guess . If your company wants you to work on both then it is an opportunity for you to be multi skilled but if they want you to switch to BW completely then you need to take a decision about it considering your interest, current situation and some research about the job market for BW.

Now, since your company is using BW that means it is in demand and organizations need are using it. the ultimate question of which technology/product is going to be hot in the future is a question that bothers many and is difficult to predict as there are always new products being developed and introduced. The best thing is to know 2-3 products very well and have a sound hold on it.

Cheers,
