to SQL Server

Grant Fritchey | Redgate Software

Goals

• Learn methods and approaches that can speed

development of database-centric applications using

SQL Server

• Understand practices that will help to ensure

enhanced protection of production systems.

Devops

• Gartner:

Devops represents a change in IT culture, focusing on rapid IT

service delivery through the adoption of agile, lean practices in the

context of a system-oriented approach. DevOps emphasizes

people (and culture), and seeks to improve collaboration between

operations and development teams. DevOps implementations

utilize technology – especially automation tools that can leverage

an increasingly programmable and dynamic infrastructure from a

life cycle perspective.

Develop

Database is code

Source control

Isolation Testing

Build

• Compare between database & database

• Compare between database & source control

• Compare between ? & ?State

• Scripts build on scripts

• Which build on scriptsMigrations

• Mix & match as neededHybrid

Validate & Test

One test at a time

Build and deployments are a

test

Only write tests for what will break

Package

Application and database together

Branches

Known definition

Release

Marked in some way for

clarity

Works only from source

Through deployment

After deployment

Drives innovation and tuning

Provision

Fundamental to “shift left”

As automated as possible

As self-service as possible

Protection cannot be sacrificed

Toys!
