CUSTOMER QUOTE

DB Refreshes were the most painful issue in the

management of our infrastructure environment.

The deployment of DBaaS @SG is a huge

progress and a key success factor of our agile

methodology: we can now refresh a DB on

demand in 15 minutes in our software factories

and non regression tests DBs !
