I can tell you an anecdote about me right now: I don't know jack shit about Android or IOS development. Yet in the past 3 months, I have developed a cloud based mobile pipeline for the compiling and storage of both OS's for my current assignment.
Tech is so fluid that what may be the latest and greatest today, will be obsolete in a few years. The mark of a truly good Admin or Engineer is not knowing everything by heart, but researching and understanding an issue quickly and solving it.
