Depending on your experience level I might start the MS track with the MCITP Server Administrator
MCITP (Microsoft Certified IT Professional) | Training Courses for IT Professionals

MS SQL Server there are these MCITP paths:
Microsoft SQL Server Certification l Database Administrator and Developer

After you have those and 10 years experience you can move on to the MCM for SQL Server
Microsoft SQL Server Certification l Database Administrator and Developer

Check the Oracle web site for details about Oracle certs.
