About RedgateOver 600,000 technology professionals worldwide use Redgate tools,
including 91% of fortune 100 companies.
Our philosophy is to design highly usable, reliable tools that solve problems
commonly faced by DBAs and developers.
The challenge of integrating databases into ALM
• Business-critical data needs to be safely and correctly preserved
• Databases carry state that needs to be managed as part of rolling out
new or updating existing software
Poor Database Deployment Effects• Databases are out of pace with application development
• Little or no traceability of database changes
• Inability to roll back to the previous version of a database
• Databases become a bottleneck in agile delivery processes
• Releases are less frequent and more risky
• Manual database processes prevent you from utilizing CI and CD to
their full extent
• Deployments require a lot of Dev and DBA hours
Benefits of DLM & Continuous Delivery
• Repeatability of processes, giving:
• Greater predictability over releases
• Efficiency by eliminating the repetition of a range of manual activities
• Faster speed of response to change through:
• The automated deployment of smaller units of change
• Greater reliability of the release process by:
• Providing a series of automated test stages prior to deployment
The Bottom Line
The 2014 State of DevOps report found that:
• IT performance strongly correlates with practices such as version
control and continuous delivery.
• High-performing IT organizations are more agile and reliable,
deploying code 30 times more frequently with 50% fewer failures.
• Firms with high-performing IT organizations are twice as likely to
exceed their profitability, market share, and productivity goals.
