What is DBmaestro DevOps Platform?

Profile

DBmaestro brings DevOps best practices such as source control, release, and compliance automation to databases. This empowers organizations to a) simplify and streamline collaboration between development and database teams, b) accelerate release velocity while improving quality, and c) reduce risks of downtime, crashes, errors, and configuration drifts.

Focus

Manage database release pipelines with database release automation: • Package, verify, deploy, and promote the database delivery pipeline • Pre-run the next release on a provisional environment to prevent errors • Identify, flag, and manage configuration drifts, conflicts, and errors to ensure a successful release every single time • Revalidate the database’s final state post-deployment and audit all changes made. Zero friction database deployment with database release automation • Seamless integration with all sources of database changes • True repeatability: Scripts introduced and tested in the integration environment are the actual scripts pushed forward as tested to higher environments. Prevent configuration drifts and errors before release • Identify instances of configuration drift due to hotfixes and versioning misalignments • Get notified on inconsistencies between environments Enforce policies and standards • Control changes and types of changes made to databases with database release automation tools • Enforce roles, responsibilities, and policies • Prevent unauthorized and out-of-process changes Scalable, agile, cross-team collaboration • Seamless integration with all sources of database changes, throughout all environments • Make it simple for Devs, DevOps, and DBAs to work together to accelerate release speed • Support speed without sacrificing quality
